I'm not sure the edit command works the way you think it works. The edit
command does not check out anything from the depot, so using a full depot
location doesn't really make much sense. Your example makes it obvious that
your clientspec does not map the file so there's no reason to think this should
work in the first place. When the file is properly mapped in the clientspec,
the edit command works as designed.
> scm:edit doesn't work with perforce as it refers the file without depot path

> Key: SCM-245
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCM-245
> Project: Maven SCM (Moved to GitHub Issues)
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: maven-scm-provider-perforce
> Affects Versions: 1.0-beta-3
> Environment: WinXP with Cygwin, Perforce 2006.1
> Reporter: syvalta
> Priority: Major
>
> Both of the commands fail to actually checkout the file for edit:
> mvn scm:edit -Dincludes="pom.xml"
> [DEBUG] Executing p4 edit pom.xml
> mvn scm:edit -Dincludes="//depot/main/java/pom.xml"
> [DEBUG] Executing p4 edit
> The error is consumed and there's no indication of any error, even the
> command fails. The command that would work would be "p4 edit
> //depot/main/java/pom.xml". I suspect at least the former command is supposed
> to work, but the provider fails to add the depot path to it.
> If the command the plugin tries to use in run on the command line, it fails:
> $ p4 edit pom.xml
> Path 'xyz/main/java\pom.xml' is not under client's root '/rootpath'.
