rmdel(1)

NAME

     sccs-rmdel, rmdel - remove a delta from an SCCS file

SYNOPSIS

     /usr/ccs/bin/rmdel -rsid s.filename...

DESCRIPTION

     The rmdel utility removes the delta specified  by  the  SCCS
     delta  ID  (SID)  supplied  with -r. The delta to be removed
     must be the most recent (leaf) delta in its branch. In addi-
     tion,  the SID must not be that of a version checked out for
     editing: it must not appear in any entry of the version lock
     file (p.file).

     If you created the delta, or, if you own the file and direc-
     tory  and  have  write  permission,  you  can remove it with
     rmdel.

     If a directory name is used in place of the s.filename argu-
     ment,  the  rmdel  command  applies  to  all s.files in that
     directory. Unreadable s.files produce an  error;  processing
     continues with the next file (if any). The use of `-' as the
     s.filename argument indicates that the names of files are to
     be read from the standard input, one s.file per line.

OPTIONS

     The following option is supported:

     -rsid Remove the version corresponding to the indicated  SID
           (delta).
