The three most important RCS commands are:
- ci

- co

- rcs

Two additional commands provide information about RCS files:
- ident

- rlog

You can compare RCS files with these commands:
- rcsdiff

- rcsmerge
Incorporate changes from two RCS files into a third RCS file.
The following command helps with configuration management:
- rcsclean
