RLOG(1) OpenBSD Reference Manual RLOG(1)NAMErlog - display information about RCS files
SYNOPSISrlog [-bhLNRtV] [-ddates] [-l[lockers]] [-r[revs]] [-sstates]
[-w[logins]] [-xsuffixes] [-ztz] file ...
DESCRIPTION
The rlog program displays information about RCS files.
A file's complete RCS history can be displayed (the default if no options
are specified) or a subset of its history log can be requested, depending
on which options are specified. RCS keywords are displayed using the
ident(1) utility.
The following options are supported:
-b Print information about revisions of the default branch only.
-ddates
Specify revisions with dates matching the specification. The
specification might be as follows:
date1<date2 or date2>date1
Select all revisions between date1 and date2.
<date or date>
Select all revisions before date.
>date or date<
Select all revisions after date.
date Select the latest revision before or equal to date.
The `>' and `<' characters can be followed by the `=' character
to imply an inclusive specification. Several specifications can
be used by separating them with the `;' character.
See also the -z option, below.
-h Print the RCS header, describing a file's branch, lock details,
symbolic names, etc.
-L Ignore RCS files with no locks set.
-l[lockers]
Print information about locked revisions only. If a comma-
separated list of login names is specified, ignore all locks
other than those held in the list.
-N Do not print symbolic names.
-R Print name of RCS file only.
-r[revs]
Specify revision(s) to list:
rev1,rev2,...
A list of revisions is specified by separating names or
numbers of revisions by the `,' character.
rev1:rev2
List all revisions between rev1 and rev2 (they must be on
the same branch).
:rev List all revisions since the beginning of the branch
until rev included.
rev: List all revisions of the branch beginning with rev.
branch List all revisions of a branch.
branch.
List the latest revision of the branch branch.
branch1:branch2
List all revisions of branches between branch1 and
branch2.
Without argument, the -r option means the latest revision of the
default branch.
-sstates
Print information about revisions whose state matches one of the
specified states. Multiple states may be specified as a comma-
separated list.
-t Print header and description only.
-V Print RCS's version number.
-w[logins]
Print information about revisions checked in by users specified
in a comma-separated list. If logins is omitted, the user's
login is assumed.
-xsuffixes
Specifies the suffixes for RCS files. Suffixes should be
separated by the `/' character.
-ztz Specify the date output format. The tz argument should be a
numeric UTC offset (e.g. +02:45 would specify an offset of 2
hours 45 minutes). `LT' may instead be used to specify local
time. If no argument is given, a default format is used. This
option is also used to set the default time zone for dates used
in the -d option.
ENVIRONMENT
RCSINIT If set, this variable should contain a list of space-delimited
options that are prepended to the argument list.
EXIT STATUS
The rlog utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
EXAMPLES
Print complete information about files:
$ rlog RCS/*
Print the names of RCS files with locks set:
$ rlog-L -R RCS/*
