New in CSSC-0.15alpha-pl0 * Reduced the number of lines of code not tested by the test suite to 2083. * Support for ignored deltas * Added section in the CSSC manual on included, excluded and ignored deltas. Various other minor improvements to manual, including a clearer description of CSSC's interoperability support, and how it treats long lines in its input. * sccs get - all g-files processed after a failing file are deleted. * Fixed compilation bug - we were using idigit() in reveral places but not including . (SourceForge bug 623164). * The test suite now passes when run against a genuine version of SCCS which lacks "prt". * Support for the "-a" option of "get" and the "-p" option of "delta". * We detect the situation if an SCCS file has a link count greater than 1, and we refuse to open the affected file. * Fix cssc.spec file so that it works with RPM v4 (i.e. when all manpages are automatically compressed). * Correction to support for MR validation on systems lacking "fork()". * Upgraded to autoconf version 2.53. New in CSSC-0.14alpha-pl0 * Added Richard Kettlewell's sccs.cgi CGI script. * Enhancements to the manual: added a Glossary, documented "val". * Include a section in the manual explaining in more detail some of the differences in between other SCCS versions (and which funcitonality CSSC follows in each case). * More test cases (we are now tracking test suite coverage with "gcov" and devising test cases to test the parts of the code that the test suite does not currently reach). * Bug-fixes for "val" (mainly corrections to the precise value returned when validation fails) * delta now checks that the caller is actually allowed to make deltas to he SCCS history file (previously this check was made only by "get -e") * The "!44" syntax for the authorised user list is not compatible with SCCS and hence has been disabled. Any complaints via the usual bug reporting route, please. * The options -Y and -M for "delta" have been removed (since they aren't in normal SCCS and can be replaced by -y"" and -m""). * "sccs help" and "sccs comb" now issue more helpful error messages explaining why the relevant program is missing. * Corrections to "what" - exit with status 1 if no matching string was found or an unknown option letter was passed. * Fixes for set-user-id operation (which is still not recommended - see the CSSC manual for an explanation). * Added warning when we see an excluded delta, explaining that this feature is not fully tested. The warning includes a pointer to a document explaining what they should do about this. * Fixed bugs from SourceForge: 479916 (get -t problem), 480136, 481519, 481707, 484278 (all related to setuid operation, and in fact all duplicates of each other), 489005 (removal of g-file when running setuid), 513800 (cope with Data General "bugfix" 4-digit years), 489311 (Locale settings cause test failure), 530969 (FILE* leak in filediff.cc), 531884 (compiler warning on 64-bit systems) * Moved old ChangeLog to ChangLog.2. New in CSSC-0.13alpha-pl1 * get -e should re-use deltas that have been removed (SF bug ID 450900, new test case tests/get/removed-delta.sh) * Fixed Debian GNU/Linux bug #120080 (that sccs sccsdiff fails to work if the /usr/sccs symbolic link is missing and the libexecfir is not on the caller's $PATH). * Test suite now passes if run against Solaris 2.6 (this is the pnly Unix system to which the author has convenient access at home). * admin -fl2 now deletes any other existing locks (this is a Solaris 2.6 compatibility fix; please report a bug if this breaks compatibility with something else). * If final item in the prs format string is \n (the escape code for newline as opposed to newline) then prs does not emit that newline (for compatibility with Solaris 2.6 - if this is different on other Unix systems, please report this as a bug). * Small changes to prt output format (reserved usr list header and extra spaces at beginning and end of line). New in CSSC-0.13alpha-pl0 * CSSC should now build with GCC version 3. * Preliminary support for CYGWIN * It is now possible to turn binary file support off when running "configure", to enforce compatibility with an SCCS implementation which lacks binary file support. It is also possible to indicate a maximum allowable line length as well. These settings can be overridden by the use of environment variables. For more information, see the "Interoperability" and "Environment" chapters in the CSSC manual. * It is also now possible to have concurrent edits (i.e. the "j" flag now actually works instead of causing a coredump). (This was SourceForge bug #439146). New in CSSC-0.12alpha-pl0 * Updated BSD license & documentation to remove advertising clause (Thanks to Janet Casey and Richard Stallman for reminding me to do this). * Some changes for better compilation with compilers other than GCC. * Include a script "testutils/mogrify.awk" that you can use to "sanitise" SCCS files before sending them with bug reports, so as to not expose your code (please check that the problem persists with the sanitised version of the file, also). * Support for newer versions of automake and autoconf. * New script, testutils/compare_gets.sh which can be used to compare the result of using CSSC on your repository of SCCS files with the effect of SCCS. NOTE: please use this tool on a COPY of your source repository! * Fix for long-standing bug: we now can correctly extract files containing deltas which include other deltas with the ^Ai construct (e.g. branch merges). We may still not handle "get -i" correctly yet though. Also, no similar fix for the excluded delta situation (I have no example file demonstrating that problem). This is recorded as SourceForge bug 111140. * Bugfixes: SID selection for branches -- if 1.3 exists and you edit 1.2.1.1, you should still get 1.2.1.2. * Documentation: we now refer to the correct SourceForge URL for the bug-reporting service in the CSSC manual. * Bugfixes: SourceForge bugs 121599, 121605. * Do correct clean up if we get SIGINT while waiting for user input (e.g. MRs) New in CSSC-0.11alpha-pl4 * delta now accepts list of MRs on input even if the input is not a TTY since allegedly other implementations do this. This patch from Albert John FitzPatrick III. * Patches to allow the processing of SCCS files with gaps in the chain of used sequence numbers, and to allow two deltas to have the same sequence number, on the condition that one of them is a removed delta. These patches from Sergey Ostashenko. * Support for SCCS files in which timestamps have been corrupted by non-Y2K-compliant versions of SCCS. These files are correctly understood on reading, and are fixed if the file is ever re-written by CSSC. (The Sun version of SCCS also performs the same fix). Patches to do this were provided by Peter Kjellerstedt * Fix from Frank van Maarseveen for cdc and rmdel: if there is a problem, delete the lock file even if we are running setuid. (See the manual for remarks about setuid operation). New in CSSC-0.11alpha-pl3 * Portability fixes for SunOS 4.1.3, Ultrix 4.2, IRIX 6.5. * Don't coredump when we fail to create the initial lockfile. * Better log messages when (e.g.) get fails to open the s.file New in CSSC-0.11alpha-pl2 * texinfo.tex is now included in the distribution, since automake likes this to be so. * We no longer rely on the STL header (neither did any version before CSSC-0.11alpha-pl1). New in CSSC-0.11alpha-pl1 * Note that this is an ALPHA release. If you want a BETA release, use 0.10beta.pl1 instead. * Rewrote the delta inclusion/exclusion code to correctly support getting deltas which include previous revisions of which they are not a descendant. This kind of thing is normally only perpetrated by other programs, real people don't usually do this by hand. * As a side-effect, delta now correctly use the ignored and excluded lists of deltas from the p-file (these are put there by "get -e -x -i"). New in CSSC-0.11alpha-pl0 * Nothing. This version never existed -- I made a typo in configure.in, making CSSC-0.11alpha-pl1 follow directly from CSSC-0.10beta-pl1. New in CSSC-0.10beta-pl1 * Eliminated some compiler warnings for bsd/sccs.c; addd CREDITS.short.txt. No other significant user-visible changes. New in CSSC-0.10beta-pl0 * Support for C++ compilers other than GNU C++. New in CSSC-0.09alpha-pl4 * The -p option of delta has been implemented. * Fixed "sccs sccsdiff" (bug report by Achim Hoffmann). New in CSSC-0.09alpha-pl3 * You can specify a full SID in the argument for the -r option of admin. Some SCCS implementations allow this, and others do not. We now allow it, but with a warning. * Improvements to the "val" command. * We avoid checking for proper support of "const" in the compiler, since the relevant Autoconf macro is designed for testing C compilers, and apparently fails on standard-compliant C++ implementations. New in CSSC-0.09alpha-pl2 * I have upgraded my C++ compiler to EGCS 1.0.3, and there are related modifications (presumably for better standard compliance). If CSSC now no longer compiles on your system, please either send me hate-mail, or a fix if you have one. * Initial support for "admin -h" (at the moment we just check the checksum and a few other simple things). The -h option is not yet well tested. * "admin -z" now works better; it doesn't complain if the s-file is read-only (because it should be read only in any case). * It is now posible to unset the "m" flag using admin. Previously this was not possible, due to an oversight. * An implementation of "val" is now included. It is not complete. You can invoke it and it behaves like "val", but it doesn't check everything it should yet. * We now cope cirrectly with SCCS files where a flag which normally has an argument is set, but without an argument. This does happen. New in CSSC-0.09alpha-pl1 * We now correctly return an exit status of 1 when we run out of disk space in get or prs. * sccsdiff is now documented. * We no longer coredump when no SCCS file is specified on the command line. * We now allow some new features of Larry McVoy's BitSCCS (BitKeeper). We don't use them, we just let them pass. * We don't require the "nl" utility in order to run the test suite. New in CSSC-0.09alpha-pl0 * We now handle failures in a different way; quit() will throw an exception on those systems that support them. New in CSSC-0.08alpha-pl1 * Documented the possible exit values in the manpage for sccs. * Re-fixed bug in mystring.cc. Sigh. * Avoids compilation error for sccs.c on Solaris. New in CSSC-0.08alpha-pl0 * The program now works on systems with no header file. Previously existing support for this situation had a bug that resulted in CSSC being unable to open files whose filenames contain more than one slash. Apologies to Achim Hoffmann for this bug. * Using "-" as a command line argument now works correctly again; a list of files to process is read from stdin. * "prs -r" with no argument for the -r now works correctly, rather than failing. * Work correctly even when invoked with one or more of the standard file descriptors closed (rather than corrupting an output file). * Preliminary support for continuing to process the argument list even if one of the files named early on the command line fails. This support is incomplete, though the current situation is better than before. There may be a few cases where the program eventually exits with the wrong error level. There may even be cases where the program now continues when it should not. New in CSSC-0.07alpha-pl3 * Corrected RPM spec file. * Added COPYING.bsd and sccs.1 to the distribution. * Ensure the test suite is not run by root (because "test -w" gives misleading results for root). New in CSSC-0.07alpha-pl2 * Bugfixes for Sun Code Manager compatibility. New in CSSC-0.07alpha-pl1 * get: eliminated spurious warning about keyword expansion and binary files. * delta: Allow backslashes to escape newlines when entering comments, MRs, etc. * "sccs create": pass the -b flag to admin, but not to get. * Small correction to test suite entry for prt. New in CSSC-0.07alpha-pl0 * "get -e" should now (again) re-use deltas that have been removed with rmdel. * Tests for sccs(1) in the test suite. * Modifications to string handling (fixes for possible bugs) in sccs(1). * sccs(1) should now compile on Linux under libc version 5 (as well as libc version 6, under which it already did compile). * Added options --cssc, --prefix, --version and -V to sccs(1) and documented them in its manual page. New in CSSC-0.06alpha-pl8 * Fixed some compilation warnings. * Fixed the formatting of MR numbers in prt. New in CSSC-0.06alpha-pl7 * Fixed bug with ignored deltas that manifested when working with SCCS files produced by Sun's "Code Manager" product. New in CSSC-0.06alpha-pl6 * Included the BSD sccs.c program for the first time. It has not been tested. It's work-in-progress. * The "-t" option of the "get" command is now implemented. New in CSSC-0.06alpha-pl5 * Bugfix for rmdel; it now no longer corrupts the SCCS file it operates on (previously all the delta control lines had been stripped out). New in CSSC-0.06alpha-pl4 * admin's -n and -i options now work correctly with absolute pathnames. * Fixes for support of SCCS files whose names contain a space. New in CSSC-0.06alpha-pl3 * "admin -i" now works when the input file turns out to need encoding. We do not need to be able to seek on the input file, so stdin from a pipe works fine, even if the -b option is not given. We also have tests for this situation. New in CSSC-0.06alpha-pl2 * 8-bit input data now works, as ordinary text. This means that you can use use CSSC to control revisions of ISO-8859 text files without needing to encode them (i.e. using the -b flag of admin). SCCS also supports this. New in CSSC-0.06alpha-pl1 * "get" keywords now sustitute the right values, the ones corresponding to the delta actually being gotten, not the ones corresponding to the delta that last modified the line currently being worked on. * Bugfixes; "get s.foo -Gbar" is now equivalent to "get -Gbar s.foo". This fix applies to all the programs, not just "get". New in CSSC-0.06alpha-pl0 * Binary file support (with test suite support). New in CSSC-0.05alpha-pl1 * When root runs "get -e", we used to get a "target file is writable" error even if the gotten file is NOT writable. This has been fixed. * Binary-file support has been worked on. It does not work reliably for large files. PLEASE DON'T USE IT AT ALL. The problem lies in pipe.{cc,h}. Work progresses. Some test cases live in tests/binary. * Added a spec-file for RPM in the "auxfiles" directory. See http://www.rpm.org/ for further information. * When get ignores the "-b" flag, the user is warned. * "get -e -r1.1.1" now works (previously this produced an assertion failure). * Added manual section explaining when and how branches are made. New in CSSC-0.05alpha-pl0 * cdc has now been debugged using new test cases. * The sact, cdc, rmdel and prt commands have now been documented in the manual. * sccsdiff has been improved by Richard Polton , (the code was rewritten by myself). * Initial support for extremely long (>99999 line) files. Also, test scripts for these. * Small bugs relating to exact emulation of "real" SCCS fixed in admin (-a and -e simultaneously of the same user now does the right thing, and -a adds users in the right order). * Significant code reorganisation New in CSSC-0.04alpha-pl0 * Fixes for year-2000 compliance. While previous versions did in fact work in the year 2000, version 0.04 includes fixes for bugs with the years 2019, 2020, and also a partial fix for the Unix year-2038 problem. SCCS files containing dates throughout the valid range for SCCS (1969-2038) work correctly. "delta", "cdc" and "admin -i" Depend on the operating system function time(), and so may stop working on some systems in the year 2038. Y2k compliance tests have been added to the testsuite. * A chapter on Year 2000 issues has been added to the manual. * We no longer need to have a mktime() function. * We now use the standard C++ header, if available. New in CSSC-0.03alpha-pl2 * Really fixed the test case for %P% in tests/get this time. * Indicated that GNU make and /bin/posix/sh are required on HP-UX version 9. New in CSSC-0.03alpha-pl1 * Changed the version number format again. It's the last time, I promise. Probably. * Works with versions of "make" other than GNU make, thanks to GNU automake. In particular, it's been tested with BSD make. * Now works (again) on systems lacking strstr(), rename(), or remove(). New in CSSC-devel-0.03a-pl0 * Fundamental changes, hence new version number. * Major change is switch to using "automake" to generate the "Makefile.in" files. The consequent changes may break things for some machines. * The test suite now has its own chapter in the manual. New in CSSC-0.02-devel-pl7 * The test scripts now correctly test the %P% keyword. * The test scripts now avoid using "echo -n -e" since the two options are incompatible on (some versions of?) FreeBSD. New in CSSC-0.02-devel-pl6 * The -m and -n options of get had been the wrong way around. This is now fixed. * Fixed "what": the marker '@(#)' is no longer printed. * Added documentation for prs. * Fixes to get (keywords %I% %R% %L% %B% %S%, plus correct subsitution when the "-c" option is used). New in CSSC-0.02-devel-pl5 * FreeBSD support (+ SMP build as a side effect, probably) * Support for G++ 2.6.3 (as well as 2.7.x) * Relocatable info directory.
