aegis -CoPy_file_Undo(1)    General Commands Manual   aegis -CoPy_file_Undo(1)

NAME
	aegis copy file	undo - reverse action of aecp

SYNOPSIS
	aegis -CoPy_file_Undo [	option...  ] filename...
	aegis -CoPy_file_Undo -List [ option...	 ]
	aegis -CoPy_file_Undo -Help

DESCRIPTION
	The  aegis  -CoPy_file_Undo command is used to delete files previously
	copied into a change.  The named files will be removed from  the  list
	of files in the	change.

	The  file  is  deleted from the	development directory unless the -Keep
	option is specified.  The -Keep	option should be used with great care,
	as you can confuse tools such as make(1) by  leaving  these  files  in
	place.

	You  may  name a directory to delete from the change all files in that
	directory tree previously copied into the change, other	files  in  the
	tree will be ignored.  It is an	error if there are no relevant files.

   Branch vs Change
	The  aecpu(1) command may only be applied to a change.	If you wish to
	perform	the same operation on  a  branch,  use	the  aemt(1)  command,
	through	the agency of a	change.

   File	Name Interpretation
	The  aegis  program  will  attempt to determine	the project file names
	from the file names given on the command line.	 All  file  names  are
	stored	within	aegis projects as relative to the root of the baseline
	directory tree.	 The development directory and the integration	direc-
	tory  are  shadows  of	this baseline directory, and so	these relative
	names apply here, too.	Files named on the command line	are first con-
	verted to absolute paths if necessary.	They are  then	compared  with
	the baseline path, the development directory path, and the integration
	directory path,	to determine a baseline-relative name.	It is an error
	if the file named is outside one of these directory trees.

	The  -BAse_RElative  option may	be used	to cause relative filenames to
	be interpreted as relative to the baseline  path;  absolute  filenames
	will  still be compared	with the various paths in order	to determine a
	baseline-relative name.

	The relative_filename_preference in the	user configuration file	may be
	used to	modify this default behavior.  See aeuconf(5) for more	infor-
	mation.

   Process Side	Effects
	This  command  will  cancel  any  build	or test	registrations, because
	deleting a file	logically invalidates them.  If	the project configura-
	tion file was deleted, any diff	registration will also be canceled.

	The difference file (,D) will also be removed, however any DMT derived
	files (e.g a .o	file from a .c file) will not be removed.  This	is be-
	cause aegis is decoupled from the DMT, and cannot know what these  de-
	rived  file may	be called.  You	may need to delete derived files manu-
	ally.

   Notification
	The copy_file_undo_command in the project config file is run, if  set.
	The project_file_command is also run, if set, and if there has been an
	integration recently.  See aepconf(5) for more information.

OPTIONS
	The following options are understood:

	-BAse_RElative
		This option may	be used	to cause relative filenames to be con-
		sidered	 relative  to  the  base of the	source tree.  See aeu-
		conf(5)	for the	corresponding user preference.

	-CUrrent_RElative
		This option may	be used	to cause relative filenames to be con-
		sidered	relative to the	current	directory.   This  is  usually
		the  default.  See aeuconf(5) for the corresponding user pref-
		erence.

	-Change	number
		This option may	be used	to specify a particular	change	within
		a  project.   See  aegis(1) for	a complete description of this
		option.

	-Help
		This option may	be used	to obtain more information  about  how
		to use the aegis program.

	-Interactive
		Specify	that aegis should ask the user for confirmation	before
		deleting  each	file.	Answer	the question yes to delete the
		file, or no to keep the	file.  You  can	 also  answer  all  to
		delete	the file and all that follow, or none to keep the file
		and all	that follow.

		Defaults to the	user's delete_file_preference  if  not	speci-
		fied, see aeuconf(5) for more information.

		If  aegis  is running in the background, the question will not
		be asked, and the files	will be	deleted.

	-Keep
		This option may	be used	to  retain  files  and/or  directories
		usually	 deleted  or replaced by the command.  Defaults	to the
		user's delete_file_preference if not specified,	see aeuconf(5)
		for more information.

	-No_Keep
		This option may	be used	to ensure that the files and/or	direc-
		tories are deleted or replaced by the  command.	  Defaults  to
		the  user's  delete_file_preference if not specified, see aeu-
		conf(5)	for more information.

	-List
		This option may	be used	to obtain a list of suitable  subjects
		for this command.  The list may	be more	general	than expected.

	-Project name
		This  option  may  be  used to select the project of interest.
		When no	-Project option	is specified, the AEGIS_PROJECT	 envi-
		ronment	 variable  is  consulted.  If that does	not exist, the
		user's $HOME/.aegisrc file is examined for a  default  project
		field (see aeuconf(5) for more information).  If that does not
		exist,	when the user is only working on changes within	a sin-
		gle project, the project name defaults to that project.	  Oth-
		erwise,	it is an error.

	-Read_Only
		This  option may be used to specify that only insulation files
		are to be uncopied.  If	you specify -UNChanged as  well,  only
		unchanged insulation files will	be uncopied.

	-TERse
		This  option may be used to cause listings to produce the bare
		minimum	of  information.   It  is  usually  useful  for	 shell
		scripts.

	-Verify_Symbolic_Links
		This option may	be used	to request that	the symbolic links, or
		hard links, or file copies, in the work	area be	updated	to re-
		flect  the  current state of the baseline.  This is controlled
		by the development_directory_style field of the	 project  con-
		figuration  file.   Only  files	 which are not involved	in the
		change are updated.  See also the  "symbolic_links_preference"
		field  of aeuconf(5).  This option is the default, if meaning-
		ful for	your configuration.  The name is an  historical	 acci-
		dent, hard links and file copies are included.

	-Assume_Symbolic_Links
		This  option may be used to request that no update of baseline
		mirror files take place.  This options is useful when you def-
		initely	know the files'	up-to-date-ness	isn't important	 right
		now; incorrect use of this option may have unanticipated build
		side-effects.	See also the "symbolic_links_preference" field
		of aeuconf(5).	This option is the default, if not  meaningful
		for  your  configuration.  The name is an historical accident,
		hard links and file copies are included.

	-UNChanged
		Examine	the named files	to see if they	are  unchanged.	  Only
		remove	the  unchanged	files  from  the change, and leave the
		files which have changed.  If no files are named on  the  com-
		mand line all change files are checked.

	-Verbose
		This option may	be used	to cause aegis to produce more output.
		By  default  aegis  only produces output on errors.  When used
		with the -List option this option causes column	headings to be
		added.

	-Wait	This option may	be used	to require Aegis commands to wait  for
		access	locks,	if  they  cannot be obtained immediately.  De-
		faults to the user's lock_wait_preference  if  not  specified,
		see aeuconf(5) for more	information.

	-No_Wait
		This  option  may  be used to require Aegis commands to	emit a
		fatal error if access locks cannot  be	obtained  immediately.
		Defaults  to the user's	lock_wait_preference if	not specified,
		see aeuconf(5) for more	information.

	See also aegis(1) for options common to	all aegis commands.

	All options may	be abbreviated;	the abbreviation is documented as  the
	upper case letters, all	lower case letters and underscores (_) are op-
	tional.	 You must use consecutive sequences of optional	letters.

	All  options  are case insensitive, you	may type them in upper case or
	lower case or a	combination of both, case is not important.

	For example: the arguments "-project", "-PROJ" and "-p"	are all	inter-
	preted to mean the -Project option.  The argument "-prj" will  not  be
	understood, because consecutive	optional characters were not supplied.

	Options	 and  other command line arguments may be mixed	arbitrarily on
	the command line, after	the function selectors.

	The GNU	long option names are understood.  Since all option names  for
	aegis are long,	this means ignoring the	extra leading '-'.  The	"--op-
	tion=value" convention is also understood.

RECOMMENDED ALIAS
	The recommended	alias for this command is
	csh%	alias aecpu 'aegis -cpu	\!* -v'
	sh$	aecpu(){aegis -cpu "$@"	-v}

ERRORS
	It is an error if the change is	not in the being developed state.
	It is an error if the change is	not assigned to	the current user.

EXIT STATUS
	The  aegis  command  will  exit	 with a	status of 1 on any error.  The
	aegis command will only	exit with a status of 0	if there  are  no  er-
	rors.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
	See aegis(1) for a list	of environment variables which may affect this
	command.    See	  aepconf(5)  for  the	project	 configuration	file's
	project_specific field for how to set environment  variables  for  all
	commands executed by Aegis.
