  NAME

    rmdel - Removes a delta from an SCCS file

  SYNOPSIS

    rmdel -r SID file ...

  FLAGS

    -r   Specifies the SID (SCCS identification) level of the delta to be
         removed.

  DESCRIPTION

    The rmdel command 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 delta must not be that of a version being edited for the
    purpose of making a delta (that is, if a p-file (see get) exists for the
    named SCCS file, the specified delta must not appear in any entry of the
    p-file).

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

  EXAMPLES

    To remove delta 2.1 from the file s.file (assuming that 2.1 is the latest
    revision on branch 2):

    rmdel -r2.1 s.File


  FILES

    x.file (see delta)

    z.file (see delta)
