It is my understanding that perforce requires an integration to occur to a file
regardless of if there was a change or not. If it was committed, and then
integrated even if the file is identical the record of the integration is
needed. That Branch 2 is up to date as of Branch 1 commit 123. Even if there are
changes that you do not want, you do the integration and then "Accept
Mine" there is no "not doing anything."

All of that said, bigger issue here isn't how I am resolving my
integrations. It is that perforce is being inconsistent in its behavior. Given
that the changelist in question is the last change to the file, and that the
target branch was up to date before said changelist it should give me the same
results in relation to that file regardless of which I do (assuming the same
integration settings.) Integrating head for that file, integrating head for that
branch, or integrating that changelist that happens to be head should all result
in that file being in my local changelist an integrate.
