sccs-fix(1)		     Schily's USER COMMANDS		     sccs-fix(1)

NAME
     sccs-fix - remove the indicated delta from the SCCS history

SYNOPSIS
     sccs fix [options] [file1 .. filen]

DESCRIPTION
     The fix subcommand essentially removes the named delta, but it is only able
     to  revise a leaf delta.  It removes the indicated delta from the SCCS his-
     tory, but leaves a working copy of the current version in the directory.

     This is useful for fixing small compiler bugs,  for  incorporating  trivial
     updates for which no audit record is needed, or for revising the delta com-
     mentary.	sccs  fix must be followed by a -r option, to specify the SID of
     the delta to remove.  The indicated delta must be the  most  recent  (leaf)
     delta  in its branch. Use fix with caution since it does not leave an audit
     trail of differences (although the previous commentary is	retained  within
     the history file).

OPTIONS
     -d     Fully  discard  the delta.	By default only the file content for the
	    related SID is removed and the delta table entry is changed  to  the
	    new  type  `R'.  When in discard mode, the delta table entry is also
	    completely discarded.

     -rsid  Specify the SID (see sccs-get(1)).

EXAMPLES
     To fix release 1.17 iof the file xec.c in the current directory, call:

	    sccs fix -r1.17 xec.c

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
     See environ(7) for descriptions of the following environment variables that
     affect the execution of sccs-fix(1): LANG, LC_ALL,  LC_CTYPE,  LC_MESSAGES,
     and NLSPATH.

     SCCS_NO_HELP
	    If	set,  sccs fix will not automatically call help(1) with the SCCS
	    error code in order to print a more helpful error  message.  Scripts
	    that  depend on the exact error messages of SCCS commands should set
	    the environment variable SCCS_NO_HELP and set LC_ALL=C.
