README rcsfreeze.pl is a perl script to freeze a configuration of sources checked in under RCS. This perl script is a complete rewrite of the rcsfreeze.sh shell script contained in the RCS package with its RCS ID: "rcsfreeze.sh,v 4.6 1993/11/03 17:42:27 eggert Exp" The major differences between the shell script and the perl script are the following: the input argument "symb revision number" - is optional for the shell script. Internally an unique revision number is used. - is mandatory for the perl script. Only this symbolic revision number is used. the log message - is saved by the shell script in its own file rcsfreeze.log. But there are no tools available to retrieve the log messages for a given revision number. - is saved by the perl script amongst the other RCS log messages. Therefore they can be retrieved with the appropriate rlog command. For more information on how to use the script, see the pod documentation or view the man pages. For instructions on how to install the script, see the file INSTALL. Problems, questions, etc. may be sent to nog@MPA-Garching.MPG.DE For Copyright see the pod documentation.
