This directory contains complete sources for version 4 of RCS.
|
|
Version 3 was included in the 4.3 BSD distribution. Features include:
|
|
|
|
1) Version 4 supports the "branch" keyword.
|
|
|
|
2) Numerous bug fixes. In addition, RCS now runs on many more machine
|
|
architectures, including Suns (3.x and 4.0), VAXen (4.2 and 4.3 BSD),
|
|
and IBM PC-ATs (Xenix).
|
|
|
|
3) Version 4 is backward compatible with version 3. Version 4 RCS will
|
|
handle files checked in under version 3 (but not vice versa).
|
|
|
|
4) This distribution is not supported in anyway. However, bugs and
|
|
(especially) bug fixes may be reported to rcs-bugs@cs.purdue.edu.
|
|
|
|
5) Older versions of diff do not support options used by RCS. It is
|
|
known that 4.3 BSD, and SunOS 3.2 (and later releases) support the
|
|
needed options. If your version of diff does not support these
|
|
options, obtain the GNU diff from the FSF.
|
|
|
|
under teh terms of the GNU General Public License.
|
|
|
|
7) All sources for RCS are contained in the "src" subdirectory. Read the
|
|
directions in its Makefile to set up the correct compile options for
|
|
building RCS on your system.
|
|
|
|
8) man pages reside in man.
|
|
|
|
9) Troff source for the paper "RCS A System for Version Control", which
|
|
appeared in Software Practice and Experience, can be found in "rcs.ms".
