Re: Help me to user RCS

[Aaron S. Hawley]

RCS has limited amounts of project management abilities.  such simple
string and file structure issues could easily be accomplished by using RCS
along with some homemade shell scripts.  noting that you can specify where
to checkin a file as the second file argument:

ci a.c /home/checkin/FMM/AZ/RCS/a.c,v

it seems the most common solution in the past was to use soft links (`ln
-s`) in user directories to appropriate RCS subdirectories.

and i'd imagine if that suggestions provides too much difficulty but your
project development design has some flexibility, then take a look into
CVS.

let us know if you need more help.
