NAME
rlog - print log messages and other information on
RCS files
SYNOPSIS
rlog [ options ] file ...
DESCRIPTION
rlog prints information about RCS files. Files ending in
,v are RCS files; all others are working files. If
a working file is given,
rlog tries to find the corresponding
RCS file first in directory ./RCS, then in the
current directory, as explained in rcsintro (5).
rlog prints the following information for each
RCS file: RCS file name, working file name, head (i.e., the
number of the latest revision on the trunk), access list, locks, symbolic names, suffix, total number of revi-
sions, number of revisions selected for printing, and descriptive text. This is followed by entries for the
selected revisions in reverse chronological order for each branch. For each revision,
rlog prints revi-
sion number, author, date/time, state, number of lines added/deleted (with respect to the previous revi-
sion), locker of the revision (if any), and log message. Without options,
rlog prints complete informa-
tion. The options below restrict this output.
Options
rlog recognizes the following options:
-ddates Print information about revisions whose check-in date and time fall within the
ranges given by the semicolon-separated list of dates . A range of the form d1
<d2 or
d2
>d1 selects the revisions that were deposited between d1 and d2 (inclusive). A
range of the form <d or d> selects all revisions dated d or earlier. A range of the
form d< or >d selects all revisions dated d or later. A range of the form d selects
the single, latest revision dated d or earlier. The date/time strings d, d1, and d2
are in the format explained in co(1). Quoting is normally necessary, especially for
< and >. Note that the separator is a semicolon.
-h Print only RCS file name, working file name, head, access list, locks, symbolic
names, and suffix.
-l[ lockers ] Print information about locked revisions. If the comma-separated list lockers of
login names is given, only the revisions locked by the given login names are printed.
If the list is omitted, all locked revisions are printed.
-L Ignore RCS files that have no locks set; convenient in combination with -R, -h
,or-
l.
-rrevisions Print information about revisions given in the comma-separated list revisions of
revisions and ranges. A range rev1-rev2 means revisions rev1 to rev2 on the same
branch,
-rev means revisions from the beginning of the branch up to and including
rev, and rev - means revisions starting with rev to the head of the branch contain-
ing rev . An argument that is a branch means all revisions on that branch. A range
of branches means all revisions on the branches in that range.
-R Print only the name of the RCS file; convenient for translating a working file name
into an RCS file name.
-sstates Print information about revisions whose state attributes match one of the states
given in the comma-separated list states .
-t Print the same as -h, plus the descriptive text.
-w[ logins ] Prints information about revisions checked in by users whose login names appear-
ing in the comma-separated list logins .Iflogins is omitted, the user’s login is
assumed.
rlog prints the intersection of the revisions selected with the options -d, -l, -s, -w, and -r.
EXAMPLES
Print the names of all
RCS files in the subdirectory named RCS that have locks:
rlog -L -R RCS/*,v
Print the headers of those files:
