NAME
unget - undo a previous get of an SCCS file
SYNOPSIS
unget [-rSID] [-s] [-n] files
DESCRIPTION
unget undoes the effect of a get -e done prior to creating the
intended new delta. If a directory is named, unget behaves as though
each file in the directory were specified as a named file, except
that non-SCCS files and unreadable files are silently ignored. If a
name of - is given, the standard input is read with each line being
taken as the name of an SCCS file to be processed.
Keyletter arguments apply independently to each named file.
-rSID Uniquely identifies which delta is no longer
intended. (This would have been specified by get as
the ``new delta''). The use of this keyletter is
necessary only if two or more outstanding gets for
editing on the same SCCS file were done by the same
person (login name). A diagnostic results if the
specified SID is ambiguous, or if it is necessary
and omitted on the command line.
-s Suppresses the printout, on the standard output, of
the intended delta's SID.
-n Causes the retention of the gotten file, which would
normally be removed from the current directory.
unget must be performed by the same user who performed the original
get -e.
