Subj: 	Undefuncting a file

What is required to undefunct a file in ODE?  A writer who took over
someone else's book has found a need to resurrect a chapter file that
was defuncted a couple of releases ago.

Thanks.

Subj: 	Re: Undefuncting a file
For example, here is how to undefunct the file ./kernel/arch/mips/cerror.s: 	
as root or devrcs on your rcs host: 	

        rlog $RCS/src/kernel/arch/mips/cerror.s
                note rev to be undefuncted, in this case 1.1.1.2
        rcs -sExp:1.1.1.2 $RCS/src/kernel/arch/mips/cerror.s
        rlog $RCS/src/kernel/arch/mips/cerror.s
                verify that the undefunct worked, i.e. that the 
                state of the file changed from 'defunct' to 'Exp'
 
          Remove the entry for kernel/arch/mips/cerror.s from the DEFUNCT file 
in
          the logs directory of the submit tree.

Dick, note that in John's mail, $RCS represents a path; it's not
really a defined variable.

In addition, if the file had been defuncted in this release, you need
to remove it from the <pool>/logs/DEFUNCT list.  In this case you
probably don't care.  Once it's submitted it will reappear in the
<pool>/logs/SNAPSHOT file.
