PlasticSCM: Commit all changes to partial workspace including new and deleted files?

Question

I'd looking for a command line for automation to commit all changes made to a partial work space including file additions and deletions.

cm checkin "path" --all

works on non-partial work spaces and includes new and deleted files

AND

cm partial checkin "path" --applychanged

works for partial work spaces but not on the new or deleted files.

Since "cm partial" doesn't have the --all keyword available, I'm hoping there is a work around where plastic will include all files changed, added or deleted in a partial work space.

Any ideas?

HELP PRINT OUT FOR "CM PARTIAL CHECKIN"

Commit changes to the repository.

Usage:

cm partial checkin | ci [<item_path>+] [-c=str_comment]
[--applychanged] [--keeplock] [--silent] [--dropconflicts]

Options:

item_path           Items to be checked-in, separated by spaces. Quotes (")
                    can be used to specify paths containing spaces.
                    Use . to apply checkin to current directory.
-c                  Specifies a comment to the changeset created in the
                    checkin operation.
--applychanged      Applies the checkin operation to the changed items
                    detected in the workspace along with the checked out
                    items.
--keeplock          Keeps the lock of the locked items after the checkin
                    operation.
--silent            Does not show any output.
--ignorefailed      Any changes that cannot be applied (because the lock
                    - a.k.a. exclusive checkout - cannot be adquired or because
                    local changes are in conflict with the server
                    changes) are discarded and the checkin operation
                    continues without them.

Remarks:

- If <item_path> is not specified, the checkin will involve all the
pending changes in the workspace.
- The checkin operation is always applied recursively from the given path.
- To checkin an item:
- The item must be under source code control.
- The item must be checked out.
- If the item is changed but not checked out the --applychanged flag has
to be specified.

Revision content should be different from previous revision in order to be
checked in.

Examples:

cm partial checkin file1.txt file2.txt
(Applies the checkin to file1.txt and file2.txt checked-out files.)

cm partial checkin .
(Applies checkin to current directory.)

cm partial ci file1.txt -c="my comment"
(Applies the checkin to file1.txt and includes a comment.)

cm partial checkin --applychanged
(Applies the checkin to all pending changes in the workspace.)

There is not a specific command in partial workspaces for locally added and deleted files, but you can use the next workaround in your partial workspaces:

1) cm findprivate | cm partial add -

2) cm status --localdeleted --short | cm rm -

3) cm partial checkin
