p4

I'm doing an integration in Perforce and am being met with the following:

p4 integrate -1 -d -i -t -r -b my_branchspec
//Foo/file.txt#6 - integrate from //Bar/file.txt#6
p4 resolve -am
/Foo/file.txt - merging //Bar/file.txt#6
/Foo/file.txt tampered with before resolve - edit or revert.

It seems no matter what I do, I am unable to make this issue go away: the next forward integration will show a similar message.

The file is a text file. I can confirm that the MD5 hash for both files before the integration takes place is the same. What other issues might be going on with this file that I can resolve to fix this nagging message?

Extending Perforce to use a custom content diff tool for certain file extensions

I have various custom binary files stored in perforce and for many of the file types I have built a custom diff tool to show the content creators a diff of the actual changes to the file. E.g.

Convert p4 move to p4 integrate

as seen on Stack Overflow - Search for 'Stack Overflow'
Is there a simple way to convert a (large) list of p4 moves to p4 integrates? There are a lot of pending modifications to the moved files, so just reverting and instead integrating isn't an option. Perforce won't let you just revert the deleted file (which would leave the desired integration behind). >>> More
