NAME
       sccstorcs - build RCS file from SCCS file

SYNOPSIS
       sccstorcs [-t] [-v] [-cshell-cmd] s.file ...

DESCRIPTION
       Sccstorcs builds an RCS file from each SCCS file argument.  The
       deltas and comments for each delta are preserved and installed into
       the new RCS file in order.  Also preserved are the user access list
       and descriptive text, if any, from the SCCS file.

       The following flags are meaningful:

       -cshell-cmd
              Executes shell-cmd for each revision before installing it in
              the RCS file.  Occurrences of %s in shell-cmd are replaced by
              the name of the file containing the revision.

       -t     Trace only.  Prints detailed information about the SCCS file
              and lists the commands that would be executed to produce the
              RCS file.  No commands are actually executed and no RCS file
              is made.

       -v     Verbose.  Prints each command that is run while it is building
              the RCS file.

FILES
       For each s.somefile, Sccstorcs writes the files somefile and
       somefile,v which should not already exist.  Sccstorcs will abort,
       rather than overwrite those files if they do exist.

DIAGNOSTICS
       All diagnostics are written to stderr.  Errors cause a non-zero exit
       status.

BUGS
       Sccstorcs does not preserve all SCCS options specified in the SCCS
       file.  Most notably, it does not preserve removed deltas, MR numbers,
       and cutoff points.
