Problem

How to use the rcsmerge command: Merge RCS revisions into the working file. See also: ci, co, rcs, rcsdiff, rlog. More information: <https://manned.org/rcsmerge>.

Solution

rcsmerge — Merge RCS revisions into the working file. See also: ci, co, rcs, rcsdiff, rlog. More information: <https://manned.org/rcsmerge>.

Merge differences between two revisions into the working file:

rcsmerge -r{{revision1}} -r{{revision2}} {{path/to/file}}

Merge changes from a branch revision into the working file:

rcsmerge -r{{branch_revision}} {{path/to/file}}

Perform a quiet merge (suppress diagnostics):

rcsmerge -q -r{{revision1}} -r{{revision2}} {{path/to/file}}

Print the result to stdout instead of overwriting the working file:

rcsmerge -p -r{{revision1}} -r{{revision2}} {{path/to/file}}
