RMDEL(1SCCS)            COMMAND REFERENCE            RMDEL(1SCCS)



NAME
     rmdel, rmchg, cdc - remove a delta from an SCCS file

SYNOPSIS
     rmdel -rSID filename...

DESCRIPTION
     Rmdel removes the delta specified by the SID from each named
     SCCS file.  The delta to be removed must be the newest (most
     recent) delta in its branch in the delta chain of each named
     SCCS file.  In addition, the  specified must not be that of
     a version being edited for the purpose of making a delta
     (for example, if a p-filename (see get(1sccs)) exists for
     the named SCCS file, the  specified must not appear in any
     entry of the p-filename).

     If a directory is named, rmdel behaves as though each file
     in the directory were specified as a named file.  If a name
     of - (a dash) is given, the standard input is read; each
     line of the standard input is taken to be the name of an
     SCCS file to be processed.

     The exact permissions necessary to remove a delta are
     documented in the Source Code Control System User's Guide.
     Simply stated, the permissions are: if you make a delta you
     can remove it; or if you own the file and directory you can
     remove a delta.

OPTIONS
     -rSID  Uniquely identifies which delta is to be removed.

EXAMPLES
     The following example removes 1.3 delta from the file
     s.foo.c:

          rmdel -r1.3 foo.c

FILES
     x-file (See delta(1sccs))

     z-file (See delta(1sccs))

DIAGNOSTICS
     Use sccshelp(1sccs) for explanations.

CAVEATS
     Non-SCCS files and unreadable files are silently ignored.
