Open Source Unix Shell RCS Software

Front end to manage Developer 2000 source code trees with RCS engine

srtools is a set of simple remote tools. the main two to mention: simple rdist distributes files or commands across hosts. srdist(1) understands rcs(1) files and host based files. there are several other tools see README. rcs tools has a few things , like "late-checkins" to check for files that one forgot to check in an dorev to force check in / do easy check in (avoiding complicated options). host based files is a way to allow hosts to distribute all files without clobbering host specific files. and with that ... srtools(1) makes partially synchronizng hosts easy. Also can be a far easier way to do incremental or nightly backups. Also an easy way to have multiple hosts interact. README is visible on file download page EXAMPLE: $rcssrdist file (file was broadcased to default hosts list that are up. if a rcs pair existed it was taken care of. existence of directory on other hosts was checked (common mistakes checked)

minirepo (abreviated to mr) is designed to handle small to middle sized repositories with rcs. It supports version bumping and snapshoting, which is simmilar to a git or fossil commit hash It keeps track of files checked into the repo via a MANIFEST file The main configuration is located inside the MR/ directory for each subdirectory initialized. Its priamry purpose is to track files with rcs related commands. This is to make it easier to deal with a lot of files tracked by rcs and also to offer some extra functionality like snapshots and automatic versioning.

rcss - rcs simplified. RCS is revision control. While the newer revision controls like git have taken the world by storm, I find as a systems administrator that I don't need all the features of git, I need some thing simple and that stays on my server and is simple and easy to use. RCS fit the bill for me for revision control. RCS didn't make it easy to do things like compare, revert. So I wrote rcss, to make working with rcs MUCH simpler, at least for myself. I hope you find it as useful as I have.
