- Wed Jun 28 09:02:14 EST 1989
-
- This directory contains complete sources for version 4 of RCS.
- Version 3 was included in the 4.3 BSD distribution. Features include:
-
- 1) Version 4 supports the "branch" keyword.
-
- 2) Numerous bug fixes. In addition, RCS now runs on many more machine
- architectures, including Suns (3.x and 4.0), VAXen (4.2 and 4.3 BSD),
- and IBM PC-ATs (Xenix).
-
- 3) Version 4 is backward compatible with version 3. Version 4 RCS will
- handle files checked in under version 3 (but not vice versa).
-
- 4) This distribution is not supported in anyway. However, bugs and
- (especially) bug fixes may be reported to rcs-bugs@cs.purdue.edu.
-
- 5) Older versions of diff do not support options used by RCS. It is
- known that 4.3 BSD, and SunOS 3.2 (and later releases) support the
- needed options. If your version of diff does not support these
- options, obtain the GNU diff from the FSF.

- under teh terms of the GNU General Public License.
-
- 7) All sources for RCS are contained in the "src" subdirectory. Read the
- directions in its Makefile to set up the correct compile options for
- building RCS on your system.
-
- 8) man pages reside in man.
-
- 9) Troff source for the paper "RCS A System for Version Control", which
- appeared in Software Practice and Experience, can be found in "rcs.ms".
