  NAME

    rcsfreeze - Freezes a configuration of sources checked in under RCS

  SYNOPSIS

    rcsfreeze [name]

  DESCRIPTION

    The rcsfreeze command assigns a symbolic revision number to a set of
    Revision Control System (RCS) files that form a valid configuration.

    The rcsfreeze command is to be run each time a new version of a set of
    files is checked in.  A unique symbolic name, C_number, is assigned to the
    most recent revision of each RCS file in the main trunk.  The number is
    increased each time the rcsfreeze command is run.

    A name may be supplied to give a symbolic name to the configuration.  The
    unique identifier is still generated and is listed in the log file but
    will not appear as part of the symbolic revision name in the actual RCS
    files.

    When the files are checked in, a log message is requested for future
    reference.

    The shell script works only on all RCS files at one time.  All changed
    files must be checked in already.  Run the rcsclean command first and see
    whether any unchecked files remain in the current directory.

  FILES

    RCS/.rcsfreeze.ver   Version number of the files.

    RCS/.rcsfreeze.log   Log messages, with the most recent message listed
                         first.

  NOTES

    Although both source file names and RCS file names are accepted, they are
    not paired as usual with RCS commands.

    The level of error checking is elementary.

  CAUTIONS

    The rcsfreeze command does not check if any sources are checked out and
    modified.
