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

NAME
     sccs-log, sccslog - create changelog from SCCS history files

SYNOPSIS
     sccslog [options] s.file1 .. s.filen

DESCRIPTION
     Sccslog creates a Changelog file from SCCS history files.

     If a file argument refers to a directory, the directory is scanned for file
     names that start with ``s.'' and examines all these files.

     This program is a SCHILY extension that does not exist in historic sccs im-
     plementations.

OPTIONS
     -a     sccslog normally collects all deltas with the same delta comment and
	    prints  them  as  one log table entry in case the related delta time
	    for the files differs no more than one day. With  -a,  sccslog  col-
	    lects only those deltas that have been created within 60 seconds.

     -aa    With -aa, sccslog collects only deltas that have been created in the
	    same second.

     -Cdir  Use  dir  as  base	directory  for printed file names in the output.
	    This option is used by sccs -R to tell sccslog  to	print  filenames
	    that are suitable for complete project changelog files.

     maxdelta=time-spec
	    Set  up a dedicated time delta while collecting deltas with the same
	    delta comment to prints them as one log table entry.

	    If n is a simple number, the delta is set to the number of seconds.

	    If n is a number like 3h10m then it is representing a number of sec-
	    onds that is evaluated as a human readable time spec.   The  letters
	    that  are recognised in the time spec are taken from smhdwy with the
	    following meaning for time units:

	    s	   seconds

	    m	   minutes (60 seconds)

	    h	   hours (60 minutes)

	    d	   days (24 hours)

	    w	   weeks (7 days)

	    y	   years (365 days - a non-leap year)

	    If neither maxdelta=time-spec nor -a are specified, the default time
	    delta is one day.

     -multfile
	    Allow multiple versions of the same file in a commit.   By	default,
	    when bundling SCCS deltas with the same delta comment, each file can
	    only  appear  once. When -multfile has been specified, the same file
	    can appear multiple times if the delta comment is the same.

     -p subdir
	    Tell sccslog to use subdir when dealing with file names.

     -R     Inverts the order of the output. This prints older entries first.

     usermap=file
	    Use file instead of the default user map file.  This allows creating
	    dedicated user map files for projects, e.g. to convert the CSRG  BSD
	    source code history. See FILES section for the format of the file.

     -x     Print  all	comment lines, even those lines that start with ^Ac_ and
	    thus are no real comment but represent SCCS  v6  metadata  that  has
	    been  wrapped  as  comment	to survive modifications by SCCS v4 pro-
	    grams.  Such wrapped data is file specific and will prevent to  find
	    more files with the same delta comment.

     -help  Prints a short summary of the sccslog options and exists.

     -Nbulk-spec
	    Processes  a  bulk of SCCS history files.  This option allows one to
	    do an efficient mass processing of SCCS history files.

	    The bulk-spec parameter is composed from an optional  list	of  flag
	    parameters followed by an optional path specifier.

	    The following flag types are supported:

	    none

	    The following path specifier types are supported:

	    -N	      The  file  name  parameters to the sccslog command are not
		      s.filename files	but  the  names  of  the  g-files.   The
		      s.filename names are automatically derived from the g-file
		      names  by  prepending s.	to the last path name component.
		      Both, s.filename and the g-file are in the same directory.

	    -Ns.      The file	name  parameters  to  the  sccslog  command  are
		      s.filename files.  The the g-files names are automatically
		      derived  by  removing  s.  from the beginning of last path
		      name component of the s.filename.   Both,  s.filename  and
		      the g-file are in the same directory.

	    -Ndir     The  file  name  parameters to the sccslog command are not
		      s.filename files	but  the  names  of  the  g-files.   The
		      s.filename names are put into directory dir, the names are
		      automatically  derived from the g-file names by prepending
		      dir/s.  to the last path name component.

	    -Ndir/s.  The file	name  parameters  to  the  sccslog  command  are
		      s.filename  files in directory dir.  The the g-files names
		      are automatically derived by removing dir/s.  from the be-
		      ginning of last path name component of the s.filename.

	    A typical value for dir is SCCS.

	    In order to overcome the limited number of exec(2) arguments, it  is
	    recommended to use `-' as the file name parameter for sccslog(1) and
	    to send a list of path names to stdin.

     -Xextended-options
	    Specify  extended  options.  The  argument extended-options may be a
	    comma separated list of extended option names.

	    The following extended options are supported, they may  be	abbrevi-
	    ated as long ad the abbreviation is still unique. Options with para-
	    meter may not be abbreviated.

	    0	   When  reading  filenames from stdin, triggered by a file name
		   argument `-', the filename separator is a null  byte  instead
		   of  a  newline.  This allows one to use long lists with arbi-
		   trary filenames.

	    help   Print a short online help for available options.

	    The -X option is a SCHILY extension that does not exist in	historic
	    sccs implementations.

     -V
     -version
     --version
	    Prints the sccslog version number string and exists.

EXAMPLES
     To creates a changelog for all SCCS history files in directory SCCS call:

	    sccslog SCCS/s.*

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

     SCCS_NO_HELP
	    If set, admin(1) 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.

FILES
     $HOME/.sccs/usermap
	    This  file contains a map list from user names to user descriptions.
	    It consists of a list of lines (each for one user) that start with a
	    user name, followed by white space and a user description.	 It  may
	    e.g. look like:

	    joerg   Joerg Schilling <schily@somewhere.com>
	    ronnie  Ronnie Nowhere <ronnie@nowhere.com>
