NAME

cmremove - remove a file from a module

SYNOPSIS

cmremove filename

DESCRIPTION

cmremove marks the specified file as removed on purpose from the module. filename must no longer exist when the cmremove command is issued. cmremove must be executed from within the module's directory, previously checked out with cmcopy. Removed files are not automatically removed from the repository; cmupdate and cmcommit are used to create the permanent change.

Note that the RCS files in the repository are moved into the Attic directory within the repository. To restore a committed-removed file to the present version requires an administrator to physically move the RCS file out of the Attic back into the module.
