sccs-log, sccslog - create changelog from SCCS history files
sccslog [options] s.file1 .. s.filen
Sccslog creates a Changelog file from SCCS history
files.
If a file argument refers to a directory, the directory is scanned
for file names that start with ``s.'' and examines all these files.
This program is a SCHILY extension that does not exist in
historic sccs implementations.
- -a
- sccslog normally collects all deltas with the same delta comment
and prints them as one log table entry in case the related delta time for
the files differs no more than one day. With -a, sccslog
collects only those deltas that have been created within 60 seconds.
- -aa
- With -aa, sccslog collects only deltas that have been
created in the same second.
- -Cdir
- Use dir as base directory for printed file names in the output.
This option is used by sccs -R to tell sccslog to print
filenames that are suitable for complete project changelog files.
- -p subdir
- Tell sccslog to use subdir when dealing with file
names.
- -x
- Print all comment lines, even those lines that start with ^Ac_ and
thus are no real comment but represent SCCS v6 metadata that has been
wrapped as comment to survive modifications by SCCS v4 programs. Such
wrapped data is file specific and will prevent to find more files with the
same delta comment.
- -help
- Prints a short summary of the sccslog options and exists.
- -Nbulk-spec
- Processes a bulk of SCCS history files. This option allows to do an
efficient mass processing of SCCS history files.
The bulk-spec parameter is composed from an optional
list of flag parameters followed by an optional path
specifier.
The following flag types are supported:
- none
The following path specifier types are supported:
- -N
- The file name parameters to the sccslog command are not
s.filename files but the names of the g-files. The
s.filename names are automatically derived from the g-file names by
prepending s. to the last path name component. Both,
s.filename and the g-file are in the same directory.
- -Ns.
- The file name parameters to the sccslog command are
s.filename files. The the g-files names are automatically derived
by removing s. from the beginning of last path name component of
the s.filename. Both, s.filename and the g-file are in the
same directory.
- -Ndir
- The file name parameters to the sccslog command are not
s.filename files but the names of the g-files. The
s.filename names are put into directory dir, the names are
automatically derived from the g-file names by prepending
dir/s. to the last path name component.
- -Ndir/s.
- The file name parameters to the sccslog command are
s.filename files in directory dir. The the g-files names are
automatically derived by removing dir/s. from the beginning
of last path name component of the s.filename.
A typical value for dir is SCCS.
In order to overcome the limited number of exec(2)
arguments, it is recommended to use `−' as the file name
parameter for sccslog(1) and to send a list of path names to
stdin.
- -V
- -version
- --version
- Prints the sccslog version number string and exists.
To creates a changelog for all SCCS history files in directory
SCCS call:
- sccslog SCCS/s.*
See environ(5) for descriptions of the following
environment variables that affect the execution of val(1):
LANG, LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, LC_MESSAGES, and
NLSPATH.
- SCCS_NO_HELP
- If set, admin(1) will not automatically call help(1) with
the SCCS error code in order to print a more helpful error message.
Scripts that depend on the exact error messages of SCCS commands should
set the environment variable SCCS_NO_HELP and set
LC_ALL=C.
- $HOME/.sccs/usermap
- This file contains a map list from user names to user descriptions. It
consists of a list of lines (each for one user) that start with a user
name, followed by white space and a user description. It may e.g. look
like:
joerg Joerg Schilling <schily@somewhere.com>
ronnie Ronnie Nowhere <ronnie@nowhere.com>
sccs(1), sccs-admin(1), sccs-cdc(1),
sccs-comb(1), sccs-cvt(1), sccs-delta(1),
sccs-get(1), sccs-help(1), sccs-prs(1),
sccs-prt(1), sccs-rmdel(1), sccs-sact(1),
sccs-sccsdiff(1), sccs-unget(1), sccs-val(1),
what(1), sccschangeset(4), sccsfile(4).
sccslog(1) was originally written by Joerg Schilling in
1997 and is still maintained by Joerg Schilling.
