Matt can help me with this, but since p4 is a "branch on checkout" model,
it really isn't that hard to create a new branch. You simply integrate
your changed file to the new branch, which creates it and retains history.

P4 doesn't exactly have branches.  It allows you to 'integrate' changes
into a different tree in the repo, and remembers the association between
them.  The integration has to be done as its own discrete step.

I think it would be better to describe it as: P4 doesn't have branches, but
it can track merges between trees which can be used to simulate some of
the behavior of branches.
