Creating Branch In Perforce
I am attempting to create a branch in Perforce that was previously deleted. The intended target was integrated with an older version of code. So the new branch that was never used was deleted. Now it's saying that the branch has already been integrated. Is there a way to override so that the new branch can be created even though it exists in the deleted history. Please bare with me, I'm new to Perforce. Thanks

This is in reference to 'files'. Not sure if it also pertains to 'branches'

Force re-integration if previously integrated
Normally Perforce doesn't open a target file for integrate if all of the source file revisions under consideration have already been integrated to it. Checking the "force re-integration" option makes the integrate command open the target file for integrate regardless of previous integration history. When you submit the file, integration history between the two files will be effectively rewritten to reflect the most recent of the duplicate integrations.
