Perforce - marking local file as latest revision

Question

I've got a following problem: There are many huge files(gigabytes) on repository, they are not yet in my workspace, but I already have them on my local disk from other source(the same copy as the latest revision).

Is there any possibility to move these local files to appropriate subdirectory of my workspace and mark them on P4 server, that they are the same as latest revision, so I don't have to download them again?

Thanks in advance

The p4 flush command should do the trick here. In this situation, you would copy the files to the appropriate location in your workspace, then run:

p4 flush //path/to/file.ext#head

You can do an entire folder using:

p4 flush //path/to/folder/...@changelist
