New option for sccs delta: -d Occasionally for files larger than 3500 lines, the use of bdiff rather than diff by sccs delta causes multiple sets of spurious differences to be generated. This new option forces delta to use diff instead, in instances when finding the smaller but still sufficient set of file differences is critical. The command line option is: delta -d s.filename This -d option will also work for sccs delta -d filename and sccs deledit -d filename and for sccs delget -d filename. EXIT STATUS The command delta -d returns an exit code of "2" instead of "1" when the s.filename isn't supplied, to allow users to identify systems that support delta -d. In summary, the following exit values are returned: 0 Successful completion. 1 An error occurred and the "-d" option had not been specified. 2 An error occurred and the "-d" option had been specified. (Rev 3) 1253447 Problem with use of $? in make match rules under 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5. 4007106 2.5 make no longer gets dependent files if not in curr dir but in the SCCS dir. 4015533 make file fails on a 16K page boundary. (Rev 2) 1261129 make rebuilt too much things when "::" rules are used.
