rcsmerge

rcsmerge(1)						      General Commands Manual						       rcsmerge(1)

NAME

       rcsmerge - merge RCS revisions

SYNOPSIS

       rev2] file

DESCRIPTION

       incorporates  the  changes between rev1 and rev2 of an RCS file into the corresponding working file.  If is given, the result is printed on
       the standard output; otherwise the result overwrites the working file.

       A file name ending in is an RCS file name; otherwise it is a working file name.	derives the working file name from the RCS file  name  and
       vice versa, as explained in rcsintro(5).  A pair consisting of both an RCS and a working file name can also be specified.

       rev1  cannot  be omitted.  If rev2 is omitted, the latest revision on the trunk is assumed.  Both rev1 and rev2 can be given numerically or
       symbolically.

       prints a warning if there are overlaps, and delimits the overlapping regions as explained for the option of co(1).  The command	is  useful
       for incorporating changes into a checked-out revision.

EXAMPLES

       Suppose	you  have released revision 2.8 of Assume furthermore that you just completed revision 3.4 when you receive updates to release 2.8
       from someone else.  To combine the updates to 2.8 and your changes between 2.8 and 3.4, put the updates to 2.8 into file and execute:

       Then examine Alternatively, if you want to save the updates to 2.8 in the RCS file, check them in as revision 2.8.1.1 and execute

       As another example, the following command undoes the changes between revision 2.4 and 2.8 in your currently checked out revision in

       Note the order of the arguments, and that is overwritten.
