     rmdel - remove a delta from an SCCS file

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     rmdel -rSID files

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     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 (i.	e., if a p-file	[see get(1)] exists for	the named SCCS
     file, the	specified must not appear in any entry of the p-file).

     The -r option is used for specifying the SID (SCCS	IDentification)	level
     of	the delta to be	removed.

     If	a directory is named, rmdel behaves as though each file	in the
     directory were specified as a named file, except that non-SCCS files
     (last component of	the path name does not begin with s.)  and unreadable
     files are silently	ignored.  If a name of - 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;	non-SCCS files and unreadable files are
     silently ignored.

     Simply stated, they are either (1)	if you make a delta you	can remove it;
     or	(2) if you own the file	and directory you can remove a delta.
