NAME
     sccs-rmdel, rmdel - remove a delta from an SCCS file

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/ccs/bin/rmdel -rsid  s.filename ...

DESCRIPTION
     rmdel removes the delta specified by the SCCS delta ID (SID)
     supplied  with  -r. The delta to be removed must be the most
     recent (leaf) delta in its branch. In addition, the SID must
     not  be  that  of a version checked out for editing: it must
     not appear in any entry of the version lock file (p.file).

     If you created the delta, or, if you own the file and direc-
     tory  and  have  write  permission,  you  can remove it with
     rmdel.

     If a directory name is used in place of the s.filename argu-
     ment,  the  rmdel  command  applies  to  all s.files in that
     directory. Unreadable s.files produce an  error;  processing
     continues with the next file (if any). The use of `-' as the
     s.filename argument indicates that the names of files are to
     be read from the standard input, one s.file per line.

OPTIONS
     The following option is supported:

     -rsid Remove the version corresponding to the indicated  SID
           (delta).
