  • UNIX Version 7 Volume 1
    UNIXTM TIME-SHARING SYSTEM: UNIX PROGRAMMER'S MANUAL Seventh Edition, Volume 1 January, 1979 Bell Telephone Laboratories, Incorporated Murray Hill, New Jersey PREFACE Although this Seventh Edition no longer bears their byline, Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie remain the fathers and preceptors of the UNIX² time-sharing system. Many of the improvements here described bear their mark. Among many, many other people who have contributed to the further ¯owering of UNIX, we wish especially to acknowledge the contributions of A. V. Aho, S. R. Bourne, L. L. Cherry, G. L. Chesson, S. I. Feldman, C. B. Haley, R. C. Haight, S. C. Johnson, M. E. Lesk, T. L. Lyon, L. E. McMahon, R. Morris, R. Muha, D. A. Nowitz, L. Wehr, and P. J. Weinberger. We appreciate also the effective advice and criticism of T. A. Dolotta, A. G. Fraser, J. F. Maranzano, and J. R. Mashey; and we remember the important work of the late Joseph F. Ossanna. B. W. Kernighan M. D. McIlroy __________________ ²UNIX is a Trademark of Bell Laboratories. INTRODUCTION TO VOLUME 1 This volume gives descriptions of the publicly available features of the UNIX² system. It does not attempt to provide perspective or tutorial information upon the UNIX operating system, its facilities, or its implementation. Various documents on those topics are contained in Volume 2. In particular, for an overview see `The UNIX Time-Sharing System' by Ritchie and Thompson; for a tutorial see `UNIX for Beginners' by Kernighan. Within the area it surveys, this volume attempts to be timely, complete and concise. Where the latter two objectives con¯ict, the obvious is often left unsaid in favor of brevity.

  • CVS II: Parallelizing Software Dev Elopment
    CVS II: Parallelizing Software Dev elopment Brian Berliner Prisma, Inc. 5465 Mark Dabling Blvd. Colorado Springs, CO 80918 [email protected] ABSTRACT The program described in this paper fills a need in the UNIX community for a freely available tool to manage software revision and release control in a multi-developer, multi-directory, multi-group environment. This tool also addresses the increasing need for tracking third-party vendor source distributions while trying to maintain local modifications to earlier releases. 1. Background In large software development projects, it is usually necessary for more than one software developer to be modifying (usually different) modules of the code at the same time. Some of these code modifications are done in an experimental sense, at least until the code functions cor- rectly, and some testing of the entire program is usually necessary. Then, the modifications are returned to a master source repository so that others in the project can enjoy the new bug-fix or functionality. In order to manage such a project, some sort of revision control system is neces- sary. Specifically, UNIX1 kernel development is an excellent example of the problems that an adequate revision control system must address. The SunOS2 kernel is composed of over a thou- sand files spread across a hierarchy of dozens of directories.3 Pieces of the kernel must be edited by many software developers within an organization. While undesirable in theory, it is not uncommon to have two or more people making modifications to the same file within the kernel sources in order to facilitate a desired change.
