Error description
The existing documentation for the IBM Rational ClearCase converter clearfsimport is not correct for the -filter and -mklabel options. The documentation should state: ----------- ?filter Determines which elements need to be checked out for the import to succeed and checks out only those elements. In combination with -mklabel (-mklabel label -filter), only newly created directory versions will get the label. ----------- ?mklabel label Attaches the specified label instance to each element that matches the name of an imported file or directory, whether or not a new version is created. If the corresponding label type does not exist, it is created. If the label is already attached to an existing element version, it is moved. -----------
