Description

We are trying to use scm:update in a cruisecontrol build to update the project before building. However it doesn't seem to actually write any changes to disk.

The command completes successfully, but the files are not synced to head. The directory for the update is a working perforce directory. i.e. after the command below fails to update the files, "p4 sync" works immediately.

[INFO] [scm:update]
[INFO] Checkout working directory: C:\PerforceViews\dms_1.2_dev\dms
[INFO] Executing: p4 client -i
[INFO] Executing: p4 client -d nbk7xsp-B001279A7BC2E-MavenSCM-C:\PerforceViews\dms_1.2_dev\dms

Is the generated clientspec just using for determining changesets? There is a valid clientspec already associated with the current project directory.
