We have an issue wherein we have the branch type name different from the
stream name. Since the job only accepts a stream name , the cleartool
lshistory command fails since this requires a brtype name. In our case
brtype is different then stream name. We had to do this since the path name
was exceeding the limit
eg. stream name : VSS_6.4.1_Int@\Y_PVOB
brtype: v641i

here is the error we get . Notice brtype is using stream name. Is there a
workaround to use brtype instead
