Boolean Flags
- `b'
- Enable branch deltas: this enables the `-b' option of get
(see section 3.5
get
).
- `e'
- This flag indicates that the file controlled by this SCCS file is a
binary file, and hence the body of the SCCS file is uuencoded.
This flag can only be set with the `-b' option of
admin
at
the time the file is created (or if admin takes it upon itself to set
this flag automatically), and cannot be unset. The circumstances under
which this can happen are discussed in 6. Interoperability.
- `f'
-
This flag is specific to the BitKeeper suite, and is only
supported if CSSC has recognised the file as a BitKeeper file.
CSSC does not understand the significance of this flag.
- `i'
-
Make
get
and delta
exit unsuccessfully when the
`Warning: No id keywords' message is issued.
- `j'
- Enables concurrent updates: if you try to get a revision for editing,
this normally fails if another user already has the file locked.
Setting the `j' flag overrides this.
- `n'
- Create empty releases when the `-r' option to
get
is used to
skip releases. These empty releases can later serve as branch
points.
- `x'
-
Sets the executable bit on the g-file. This flag is a SCO OpenServer
extension and is not supported by other versions of SCCS.
Setting this flag with
admin -fx
generates a warning to this
effect. If CSSC is simply processing a file which already has
this flag set, no message will be generated. See
6. Interoperability for more information on compatibility between
CSSC and other implementations of SCCS.
