Welcome! ======== This directory contains sources and documentation for GNU RCS. GNU RCS (Revision Control System) manages multiple revisions of files. RCS can store, retrieve, log, identify, and merge revisions. It is useful for files that are revised frequently, e.g., programs, documentation, graphics, and papers. See the following files and directories for more information. AUTHORS - authorship information COPYING - copying conditions INSTALL - generic installation instructions NEWS - recent changes doc/ - documentation in info format, plus source (texinfo) lib/ - portability code, from gnulib m4/ - configure script infrastructure, from gnulib man/ - manual page entries, plus source src/ - source code for programs tests/ - test suite Prerequisites and compatibility issues ====================================== RCS requires a diff that supports the -n option. Get GNU diffutils (version 2.7 or later) if your diff lacks -n. RCS works best with a diff that supports -a and --label, and a diff3 that supports -A, -E and -m. GNU diffutils supports these options. RCS version 5 reads RCS files written by any RCS version released since 1982. It also writes RCS files that these older versions of RCS can read, unless you use one of the following new features: - checkin dates after 1999-12-31 - checking in non-text files - identifiers containing ‘.’ or non-ASCII bytes, or starting with a digit - ‘rcs -bX’, where X is nonempty - ‘rcs -kX’, where X is not ‘kv’ - RCS files that exceed hardcoded limits in older RCS versions A working file written by RCS 5.5 or later contains four-digit years in its keyword strings. If you check out a working file with RCS 5.5 or later, an older RCS version's ‘ci -k’ may insist on two-digit years. Similarly, a working file written with ‘-zZONE’ contains times in its keyword strings that older ‘ci -k’s may not understand. Work around this with ‘co -V4 -z’, or edit the working file. RCS should run on any host that conforms to the POSIX 1003.1-1990 standard. It also runs on a wide variety of non-POSIX hosts. Configuration and installation ============================== See INSTALL for general instructions on configuring and building RCS. Use ‘configure --help’ to see a list of options for customizing the installation directories (.e.g, --prefix). * Another option is ‘--enable-compat2’. It enables reading RCS 2.x file formats. Most likely you can safely ignore this (that file format became obsolete in 1982). However, if you do indeed find a version 2 file around, you can migrate the file to a recent format as follows: Suppose the working file was ‘f.c’; rename the RCS file ‘f.c.v’ to ‘f.c,v’, and the RCS file ‘f.v’ to ‘f.c,v’. Thus suffixes are no longer dropped and RCS files end in ‘,v’ rather than ‘.v’. After all version 2 RCS files have been updated with new versions of ci or rcs, you can remake RCS with --enable-compat2=no. !!! NB: This option (and 2.x compatability) will be removed soon. * Another option is ‘--with-mailer=PROG’. This specifies that PROG (an absolute filename if not findable on PATH) should be used to send mail to the original locker when a lock is broken. PROG will be called with one argument, the recipient, and its standard input will be: Subject: Broken lock on <FILENAME> <REASON> That is, the first line is the subject, followed by an empty line, followed by the message body. Omitting this option disables sending mail. * For speed, RCS uses the ‘mmap’ system call if available. Unfortunately, many mmap implementations are broken. For instance, mmap does not work properly in HP-UX 8 or 9, or in Solaris 2.4, without kernel patches. We don't know details about the bugs, so we can't test for them automatically. You can build RCS without mmap by specifying ‘--disable-mmap’ to the configure script. * By default, RCS supports running its commands setuid, using ‘seteuid’. If your ‘seteuid’ (typically on older BSDs, e.g., SunOS 3.5) does not let you switch back and forth between any pair of users as specified in POSIX 1003.1a Draft 5, you should specify ‘--enable-suid=setreuid’, instead. (One must be root to test this reliably, so the configure script just checks availability.) To build RCS without setuid support, specify ‘--disable-suid’. !!! NB: Support for setuid operation will be removed in GNU RCS 6.x. !!! NB: Don't run RCS setuid under AIX 3.2 if you use NFS, since it's badly broken. To see the AIX 3.2 bug, run the following program setuid X where the NFS file "abc" already exists, owned by X, permission -rw-r--r--, and where the invoker is not X. #include <stdio.h> int main () { FILE *f = fopen ("abc", "w"); setuid (getuid ()); fputc ('\n', f); if (fclose (f) != 0) perror ("fclose"); } The program fails with "fclose: Permission denied". If your system type is in the following list, look for the corresponding strings in the notes below before configuring. system type - identifiers ------------------------------------ AIX 3.2 - --prefix=/usr GCC 2.5.8 Intel x86 - CFLAGS HP-UX 8.07 and 9.* - MMAP_SIGNAL Solaris 2.4 - MMAP_SIGNAL SCO Unix V.3.2 - bad_NFS_rename Ultrix - HAVE_SETEUID If the configure script tells you that your platform might be desupported in the future, then consider yourself very lucky! As a courageous builder of free software you are now empowered to clue in the RCS maintainer on the desirability of continued support for your platform, thereby quietening your fears and increasing the connectedness of the RCS-using community. You do this by mailing the warning text output by the configure script to bug-rcs@gnu.org, with a suitably detailed (i.e., optional) explanation of your platform, including why it should (or shouldn't) be supported. If building succeeds, do "make check" (optional) and "make install". To check the installation, do "make installcheck". AIX NOTE: Do not configure with ‘--prefix=/’ or ‘--prefix=/usr’ in AIX. An AIX boot shell script (/etc/rc.boot4 in AIX 3.2) invokes ‘merge’, meaning /etc/merge, and fails if RCS merge is installed in /bin or /usr/bin. IBM says that installing new programs into /usr/bin is a customer error (!). Configuration environment ========================= The configuration procedure normally inspects the current host to determine how RCS is to be built. The variables listed in this section override this default. They should be specified on the configure script command-line, like so: $ ./configure [--prefix and other options...] VAR=VALUE VAR=VALUE CC is the name of your C compiler. CPPFLAGS are C preprocessor options. CFLAGS are C compiler options that do not affect correctness, typically options that affect optimization or debugging. Omit -O if your compiler's optimizer is not trustworthy (e.g. GCC 2.5.8 x86). If your ancient BSD compiler has the -R option, -R can improve performance by making all initialized data read-only (not just string literals); modern compilers don't need this, since they have ‘const’. DIFF is the name of your diff program. It's normally best to use GNU diffutils. On some versions of Unix, the standard diff does not support RCS and you must instead use diffutils, or something like /usr/lib/rdiff. DIFF3 is the name of the diff3 program. With GNU diffutils, this is simply its user-visible diff3 program. But with traditional diff3 it is the name of the undocumented diff3 auxiliary, whose name is /usr/lib/diff3 or /usr/5lib/rdiff3prog or something similar. INSTALL is the command that installs commands, e.g. ‘../install-sh’. INSTALL_DATA installs data, and INSTALL_PROGRAM installs programs. SOELIM is the name of your soelim program. This is typically the standard one from groff. It is used only if you edit man/*.[15]in or make ‘maintainer-clean’. PIC is the name of your pic program, configured to avoid extensions so that a portable man page is generated. This is typically GNU pic with the ‘-n’ option, or traditional pic with ‘-D’. It is used only if you edit the documentation or make ‘maintainer-clean’. cross-compilation ================= There are several variables set by the configure script that are assigned "pessimistic" defaults when cross-compiling (info "(autoconf) Runtime"): (variable) (value) rcs_cv_tinyinit_ok no rcs_cv_fopen_truncates no rcs_cv_wac_ok no rcs_cv_unlink_mw_ok no rcs_cv_rename_mw hopeless rcs_cv_sane_mmap no rcs_cv_mmap_signal unknown rcs_cv_tolerant_wait no To set the "correct" value for a particular VAR, overriding its default, you can specify VAR=VALUE on the configure script command-line. For example: ./configure \ rcs_cv_tinyinit_ok=yes \ rcs_cv_unlink_mw_ok=no Note that the value of ‘rcs_cv_mmap_signal’ has meaning only if ‘rcs_cv_sane_mmap’ is ‘yes’. Valid values are documented only in the configure script source, i.e., configure.ac -- don't guess, use the Source! If you get good results cross-compiling, with or without such variable overrides, please consider sharing the good news by posting the configure script invocation to the bug-report address with subject "cross-compilation success" or similar. src/base.h notes ================ This section covers unusual situations requiring hand patches to src/base.h. bad_NFS_rename - Some buggy NFS file servers (e.g. some NAC releases) can report that rename(A,B) succeeded even though it failed. Set bad_NFS_rename to nonzero to work around the problem. Warning: the workaround introduces a rare race condition that can falsely report I/O errors; this is why the workaround is disabled unless you specify otherwise. has_NFS - Set this if the target host might use NFS. NFS's ``stateless server'' protocol has well-known problems with the non-idempotent operations link(2), rename(2), and unlink(2). For example, unlink(2) can run twice on the NFS server, causing the client to think that the unlink failed with errno==ENOENT. has_NFS enables code that works around these problems. However, has_NFS does not work around NFS implementation bugs; if your NFS implementation is buggy, get another! For example, make sure that your NFS uses UDP checksums, if it uses UDP. Modern systems checksum by default; ask your vendor if you're not sure. bad_NFS_rename - This should be 1 in SCO Unix V.3.2. Its NFS rename(2) is broken, but if configure runs in a non-NFS file system, it thinks rename(2) works. TZ_must_be_set - set this to 1 on hosts where gmtime(3) yields bogus values unless the TZ environment variable is set. X_DEFAULT - This is normally ",v/" on Unix hosts, and "" on hosts that do not allow commas in file names (e.g. DOS).
