rlog

Display identification information for RCS files , including the log message associated with each revision, the number of lines added or removed, date of last check-in, etc. With no options, rlog displays all information. Use options to display specific items. rlog accepts the standard options -q , -V , -V n , -T , -x , and -z .

Options

-b

Prune the display; print only about the default branch.

-d dates

Display information for revisions whose check-in timestamp falls in the range of dates (a list separated by semicolons). Be sure to use quotes. Each date can be specified as:

d1  <  d2

Select revisions between date d1 and d2 , inclusive.

d1 <

Select revisions made on or after date1 .

d1 >

Select revisions made on or before date1 .

Timestamp comparisons are strict. If two files have exactly the same time, < and > won't work. Use <= and >= instead.

-h

Display the beginning of the normal rlog listing.

-l [users ]

Display information only about locked revisions or, if users is specified, only about revisions locked by the list of users .

-L

Skip files that aren't locked.

-N

Don't print symbolic names.

-r [list ]

Display information for revisions in the comma-separated list of revision numbers. If no list is given, the latest revision is used. Items can be specified as:

R1	Select revision R1 . If R1 is a branch, select all revisions on it.
R1 .	If R1 is a branch, select its latest revision.
R1 : R2	Select revisions R1 through R2 .
: R1	Select revisions from beginning of branch through R1 .
R1 :	Select revisions from R1 through end of branch.

The - range separator character from RCS versions prior to 5.6 is still valid.

Display only the name of the RCS file.

-s states

Display information for revisions whose state matches one from the comma-separated list of states .

-t

Same as -h , but also display the file's description.
