30.SH DESCRIPTION
31.PP
32\fISvc\fR is the Shell Version Control system, patterned on RCS.
33It maintains a sequence of versions in archive files, so that new versions
34can be checked in (added to the archive), and old versions can be checked
35out (made available).
36To create an archive for \fIfile\fR, check it in with the \fB\-u\fR flag.
37This action will prompt for a log message and then create an archive called
38\fIfile,S\fR in the current directory, or in the subdirectory \fISVC\fR if
39it exists.
40The file will not be deleted, but will be made unwritable.
41.PP
42To update the file, check it out with the \fB\-l\fR flag.
43Then modify it, and check it back in, giving a new message when prompted.
44After this process has been repeated many times, the archive will contain
45the entire history.
46Any version can be checked out using the \fB\-r\fR flag.
47To get a printout of the history, use \fIsvclog\fR.
