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.

rmdel - remove a delta from an SCCS file SYNOPSIS
SID file ... DESCRIPTION
The command removes the delta specified by the SID from each named SCCS file. The delta to be removed must be the newest (most recent) delta in its branch in the delta chain of each named SCCS file. In addition, the SID specified must be that of a version being edited for the purpose of making a delta (i.e., if a p-file (see get(1)) exists for the named SCCS file, the SID specified must appear in any entry of the p-file). 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 and unreadable files are silently ignored.

When is specified on the command line, all following arguments are treated as file names. The permissions to remove a delta are either (1) if you make a delta you can remove it; or (2) if you own the file and directory you can remove a delta. EXTERNAL INFLUENCES

If is not specified or is set to the empty string, a default of "C" (see lang(5)) is used instead of If any internationalization variable contains an invalid setting, behaves as if all internationalization variables are set to "C". See environ(5). International Code Set Support Single-byte and multi-byte character code sets are supported. DIAGNOSTICS
