I'm pleased to announce the release of GNU CSSC, version 1.3.1. This is a test release and follows the previous stable release 1.3.0. This release can be downloaded from ftp://alpha.gnu.org/pub/gnu/cssc.
Stable releases of CSSC are available from ftp.gnu.org. Development releases and release candidates are available from alpha.gnu.org. As for other GNU packages, the latest stable release can be downloaded from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/cssc. CSSC ("Compatibly Stupid Source Control") is the GNU project's replacement for the traditional Unix SCCS suite. It aims for full compatibility, including precise nuances of behaviour, support for all command-line options, and in most cases bug-for-bug compatibility. CSSC comes with an extensive automated test suite. If you are currently using SCCS to do version control of software, you should be able to just drop in CSSC, even for example if you have a large number of shell scripts which are layered on top of SCCS and depend on it. This should allow you to develop on and for the GNU/Linux platform if your source code exists only in an SCCS repository. CSSC also allows you to migrate to a more modern version control system (such as CVS or git). There is a mailing list for users of the CSSC suite. To join it, please send email to <cssc-users-requ...@gnu.org> or visit the URL http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/cssc-users. There is also a mailing list for (usually automated) mails about bugs and changes to CSSC. This is http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-cssc. For more information about CSSC, please see http://www.gnu.org/software/cssc/. In the file docs/CREDITS within the CSSC distribution, there is a full list of people who have contributed to the development of CSSC. They are listed briefly here :- James Youngman, Ross Ridge, Eric Allman, Lars Hecking, Larry McVoy, Dave Bodenstab, Malcolm Boff, Richard Polton, Fila Kolodny, Peter Kjellerstedt, John Interrante, Marko Rauhamaa, Achim Hoffann, Dick Streefland, Greg A. Woods, Aron Griffis, Michael Sterrett, William W. Austin, Hyman Rosen, Mark Reynolds, Sergey Ostashenko, Frank van Maarseveen, Jeff Sheinberg, Thomas Duffy, Yann Dirson Many thanks to all the above people. Changes since the previous release are: * prs now prints ignored deltas when expanding the :DI: keyword. The expansion of :DI: varies between SCCS implementations, as described in the manual. This partly fixes Savannah bug #33154: SCCS versions vary wrt ignored deltas (that is, this change covers only the prs binary). * Fix Savannah bug bug #33153: "prs" includes "AUTO NULL DELTA"s. "prs -r" will no longer print any additional deltas that happen to share the same timestamp with the last matching delta. * If the SID identified by "prs -r" is not found, prs now exits with status 1, not 0. This fixes SourceForge bug #1300722. * The headers produced by sccsdiff have changed. A different header is used when the -p option is specified and when it's not. The new behaviour matches OpenSolaris 2009.06. * The ordering of the ouput of "sccs unedit" is now different; the new order matches OpenSolaris 2009.06. * "get -L" will now send the ID of the gotten SID to stderr, which better matches OpenSolaris 2009.06. The indentation of the delta summary has also been adjusted. * To pass an empty list of MRs to admin, you now have to provide an argument (as opposed to omitting it). For example, "admin -i/dev/null -fv -m' ' s.foo". This aligns better with OpenSolaris 2009.06 but it is a backward-incompatible change.
