clearcase

Is it possible to remove the label from entire version tree?

From every branch and node. Not only in branch of current view.

I have tried using "cleartool rmlabel -rec YOUR_LABEL yourDirectory" . but it removes only current view of version.

Solution

  • You can try instead to remove the entire label type:

    cleartool rmtype -rmall yourlabel@\avob

    But be careful, that would remove all instances of that label anywhere in that repo.
    See another example of rmtype with "How to delete a clearcase branch with a single command?" using find and cleartool rmlabel.

    Since you don't want to remove the label in the all vob, only in a given folder, you need to apply a slower solution, searching files with that label in your folder and subfolders:

    cd /path/to/your/folder
cleartool find . -version "{lbtype(LABEL)}" -print

    If the above line do print version for files in your folder and your subfolder, then try:

    cd /path/to/your/folder
cleartool find . -version "{lbtype(LABEL)}" -exec "cleartool rmlabel YOUR_LABEL \"%CLEARCASE_XPN%\""
