RCSFREEZE(1) RCSFREEZE(1)
NAME
rcsfreeze - freeze a configuration of sources checked in under RCS
SYNOPSIS
rcsfreeze [name]
DESCRIPTION
rcsfreeze assigns a symbolic revision number to a set of RCS files that form a valid con-
figuration.
The idea is to run rcsfreeze each time a new version is checked in. A unique symbolic
name (C_number, where number is increased each time rcsfreeze is run) is then assigned to
the most recent revision of each RCS file of the main trunk.
An optional name argument to rcsfreeze gives a symbolic name to the configuration. The
unique identifier is still generated and is listed in the log file but it will not appear
as part of the symbolic revision name in the actual RCS files.
A log message is requested from the user for future reference.
The shell script works only on all RCS files at one time. All changed files must be
checked in already. Run rcsclean(1) first and see whether any sources remain in the cur-
rent directory.
FILES
RCS/.rcsfreeze.ver

RCS/.rcsfreeze.log

BUGS
rcsfreeze does not check whether any sources are checked out and modified.
Although both source file names and RCS file names are accepted, they are not paired as
usual with RCS commands.
Error checking is rudimentary.
rcsfreeze is just an optional example shell script, and should not be taken too seriously.
See CVS for a more complete solution.
