[comp.os.msdos.programmer] SCCS for DOS

lance@hermix.UUCP (Lance Ellinghouse) (02/11/91)

Does anyone know where I can get a version of SCCS that runs under
DOS and that is 100% compatible with the UNIX version??

What we want to do is use NFS and mount a UNIX partition
and make the source code available to DOS and UNIX
and allow people on DOS and UNIX to edit the files using
SCCS as the access control..

Please respond via E-mail since I normally don't read this group.

Thanks,
Lance Ellinghouse

Actually while we are on this note I am looking for a
SCCS or RCS package that will work on dos period.  It does
not have to be Compatible with the unix version or anything
it just has to work.  I tried using 'RCS' from simtel20
and it seems to work fine with almost everything except
that it expected 'diff' to be present (which was not
included in the package)  When I did find a unix
compatible version of diff for dos but rcsdiff
which is called by ci calls diff with the 
-n -a options which are not supported... So to make
a short story long does anyone know of a Revision Control
system (via simtel20, compu$erve, ftp, etc...) which 
works and I can get a copy of?  Thanks!!

Well, at the same place you got RCS, there is also a good diff.

RCS is in mirrors/msdos/pgmutl
and the diff is in mirrors/msdos/gnuish , which also has some more UNIX-like
utilities from GNU for MS-DOS.


This combination works great for me.
