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

NAME
     sccs-init - create a new SCCS repository in the given directory

SYNOPSIS
     sccs init [options] [directory1 .. directoryn]

DESCRIPTION
     The  init subcommand creates a new SCCS repository in the given list of di-
     rectories.  If no directory argument is given, the current  working  direc-
     tory is used.

     This subcommand is a project extension that does not exist in historic sccs
     implementations.

OPTIONS
     -f     Force  initialization even if already initialized. This also permits
	    one to create a SCCS repository inside an existing repository.

     -i     Select in tree mode for the SCCS history files.  The  history  files
	    are  kept in a directory SCCS inside the directory where the g-files
	    are located.  The default is to create an off tree	repository  that
	    keeps the history files in a shadow tree under .sccs/data.

     -s     Create  a new repository with separately managed files does not sup-
	    port project bundling.

EXAMPLES
     To create a new SCCS repository in the current directory call:

	    sccs init .

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

     SCCS_NO_HELP
	    If	set, sccs init 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.
