When scanning for changes in multibranch pipelines we use p4 changes -m1 //Path/...@now. This is triggering a similar resource behavior to:
For example with a big dataset in the multibranch scan log we see:
p4 changes -m1 //Path/branch/...@now Request too large (over 500000); see 'p4 help maxresults'. ERROR: [Mon Mar 30 13:07:05 CEST 2020] Could not fetch branches from source d5fe37f7-6c40-4111-af23-d4f539fec120 com.perforce.p4java.exception.RequestException: Request too large (over 500000); see 'p4 help maxresults'.
When checking this at the command line we see that limiting the query or dropping '@now' works:
$ p4 changes -m1 //path/branch/...@now Request too large (over 500000); see 'p4 help maxresults'.$ p4 changes -m1 //path/branch/...@2020/03/30 Request too large (over 500000); see 'p4 help maxresults'.$ p4 changes -m1 //path/branch/... Change 62552 on 2020/03/30 by user@PC1 'CL Description'$ p4 changes -m1 //path/branch/...@52552,62552 Change 62552 on 2020/03/30 by user@PC1 'CL Description'
Would be great if we could either drop the usage of '@now' or restrict to the last n changes.
