How to return current branch info in ClearCase
I need to be able to isolate the branch upon which a given version of an element resides from within a script.
Is there a desc or ls command or something that will take a -fmt argument that will give me the branch?

fmt_ccase is the man page that describes everything

If you're trying to do this in a trigger, there's also a couple of environment variables you can use:
CLEARCASE_XPN
CLEARCASE_BRTYPE
These can be found by searching the manpage for mktrtype.
You can also use 'em in Perl with the %ENV hash:
my $extended_path = $ENV{"CLEARCASE_XPN"};
