NAME

rcssnapshot − Move all RCS’ed files to a new version number

SYNOPSIS

rcssnapshot [options] checkpoint-name

OPTIONS

−rrevCheck in all files as the revision number specified by rev. 

DESCRIPTION

This program assigns a symbolic name to all files controlled by RCS in the current directory.  If the "−rrev" option is given, it checks in each file  as revision rev before assigning the symbolic name. No files in the directory may be checked out at the time rcssnapshot is run. 
 
As an example, consider a directory with three files:
 

FileVersion
file12.3
file22.2
file3 2.2

If the command rcssnapshot -r3.0 winter89 is issued, then all three files will have RCS version number 3.0, and may also be referenced in the future by the symbolic name winter89.
