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.
