. To place files under the control of SCCS use the command: sccs create filename(s) . For each filename given as an argument sccs create does the following: . filename is moved to ,filename . a history file s. filename is created in the SCCS subdirectory . a "read only" copy of the initial version of the file is made by sccs get . You can use the ls command to check that the history files have been created. ls SCCS . Now you can remove the ,filename files: rm ,* .
