  NAME

    sccstorcs - Builds RCS file from SCCS file

  SYNOPSIS

    sccstorcs [-ctvAD] s.file ...

  FLAGS

    -c   Checks out a file.  Once the RCS file has been deposited, it is
         checked back out in an unlocked state so that a copy of the file will
         reside in the directory.

    -t   Performs a trace only.  Displays detailed information about the SCCS
         file and lists the commands that would be executed to produce the RCS
         file.  No commands are actually executed and no RCS file is created.

    -v   Displays each command while it is building the RCS file.

    -A   Does not preserve the author recorded in the SCCS file.  Instead,
         uses the current user login.

    -D   Does not preserve the date and time recorded in the SCCS file.
         Instead, uses the current date and time.

  DESCRIPTION

    The sccstorcs command builds a Revision Control System (RCS) file from
    each Source Code Control System (SCCS) file argument.  The deltas and
    comments for each delta are preserved and installed in the new RCS file in
    order.  Also preserved are the user access list, author, date stamp, and
    descriptive text from the SCCS file.

  EXAMPLES

    The following command will read the s.file in the SCCS subdirectory, and
    create an RCS file in either the RCS subdirectory, if it exists, or else
    the current directory.  It will also check out the newly created RCS file
    as file in the current directory:

    sccstorcs -cv sccs/s.file


  FILES

    s.file   SCCS file.

    file     Working file version.

    file,v   RCS file.

  NOTES

    For each file, sccstorcs produces the files file and file,v which should
    not exist.  The sccstorcs command will abort rather than overwrite these
    files if they exist.  The sccstorcs command does not preserve all SCCS
    options specified in the SCCS file.  Most notably, it does not preserve
    removed deltas, MR numbers, and cutoff points.

  DIAGNOSTICS

    All diagnostics are written to stderr.

  EXIT VALUES

    This command exits with a value of 0 if successful.  If unsuccessful, it
    exits with a nonzero value.
