I am having a problem
with the diff command when I use the RCS ci command.
I am working on
Sun Solaris 8 system.
This is the error
message with ci that I get:
ci
test.c
RCS/test.c,v <-- test.c
new revision: 1.3; previous revision: 1.2
enter log message,
terminated with single '.' or end of file:
>>
test
>> .
/usr/local/bin/diff: not
found
ci: RCS/test.c,v: diff failed
ci
aborted
If I do a which diff I
get:
which
diff
/usr/bin/diff
As a work around I
went to /usr/local/bin and put in a symbolic link to
/usr/bin/diff
# ln -s
/usr/bin/diff diff
# pwd
/home/local/bin
And then I get the
error message: /usr/local/bin/diff: illegal option --
a
ci
test.c
RCS/test.c,v <-- test.c
new revision: 1.3; previous revision: 1.2
enter log message,

ci:

What should I be doing
to fix this problem?
Thanks,
John
