Help With Sccs.
Hi ,
I am currently using Source Code Control System (SCCS) to keep track of my documents.
There are several User that update the document.
As we all know that after editing it prompts for the comment.
But even if somebody just hits return it accepts it.
I would like that after the document in SCCS has been edited and we get a prompt to comment, this prompt should not accept just hitting of return.
It should be Mandatory for the person who edited the document to actually enter the updation comment. Or more better even it should prompt for the name of the person( and wouldn't proceed until something was entered).
I am sure it is possible but don't know what command to use and how to go about it.
Can someone kindly help me.
Your responce and help will be highly appreciated.
Thanx in advance.
Rooh.

I am having some problem while creating a new sccs file. During initial creation of the file the SCCS is not storing the file in actual format with the result that the SCCS file is different from my original file.
Any way to avoid this??

rmdel(1) General Commands Manual rmdel(1)
Name
rmdel - remove a delta from an SCCS file
Syntax
rmdel -r files
Description
The command removes the delta specified by the SID from each named SCCS file. The delta to be removed must be the most recent delta in its
branch in the delta chain of each named SCCS file. In addition, the specified delta must not be that of a version being edited for the
purpose of making a delta, for example, if a p-file exists for the named SCCS file, the specified delta must not appear in any entry of
the p-file). For further information, see
If a directory is named, behaves as though each file in the directory were specified as a named file, except that non-SCCS files (last com-
ponent of the path name does not begin with s.) and unreadable files are silently ignored. If - is given as the name, the standard input
is read and each line of the standard input is taken to be the name of an SCCS file to be processed. Non-SCCS files and unreadable files
are silently ignored.
Certain permissions are necessary to remove a delta. If you make a delta or own the file and directory, you can remove it.
Options
-rSID Specifies the delta version number.
Diagnostics
