- NAME
- rcsfreeze - freeze a configuration of sources checked in
- under RCS
-
- SYNOPSIS
- rcsfreeze [symbolic revision name]
-
- DESCRIPTION
- The rcsfreeze command has the purpose of assigning a sym-
- bolic revision number to a set of RCS files, which form a
- valid configuration.
-
- The idea is to run rcsfreeze each time a new version is
- checked in. A unique symbolic revision number (C_number,
- where number is increased each time rcsfreeze is run) is
- then assigned to the most recent revision of each RCS file
- of the main trunk.
-
- If the command is invoked with an argument, then this argu-
- ment is used as the symbolic name to freeze a configuration.
- The unique identifier is still generated and is listed in
- the log file but it will not appear as part of the symbolic
- revision name in the actual RCS files.
-
- A log message is requested from the user which is saved for
- future references.
-
- The shell script works only on all RCS files at one time.
- It is important that all changed files are checked in (there
- are no precautions against any error in this respect). Run
- rcsclean(1L) first and see whether any sources remain in the
- current directory.
-
- FILES
- [RCS/]rcsfreeze.version for the version number
-
- [RCS/]rscfreeze.log for the log messages, most recent
- log message first.
