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.
