SYNOPSIS
aegis -Develop_Begin_Undo change-number [ option... ]
aegis -Develop_Begin_Undo -List [ option... ]
aegis -Develop_Begin_Undo -Help
DESCRIPTION
The aegis -Develop_Begin_Undo command is used to reverse the effects of
the ’aegis -Develop_Begin’ command. The development directory is
discarded, even if the change has files associated with it, and even if
the development directory is not empty; all files in the development
directory will be lost. The change is returned to the awaiting
development state. boxwid = 1 down S1: box "awaiting" "development"

Notification
The develop_begin_undo_command field of the project config file is run,
if set. See aepconf(5) for more information.
OPTIONS
The following options are understood:
-Change number
This option may be used to specify a particular change within a
project. See aegis(1) for a complete description of this
option.
-Help
This option may be used to obtain more information about how to
use the aegis program.
-Interactive
Specify that aegis should ask the user for confirmation before
deleting each file. Answer the question yes to delete the
file, or no to keep the file. You can also answer all to
delete the file and all that follow, or none to keep the file
and all that follow.
Defaults to the user’s delete_file_preference if not specified,
see aeuconf(5) for more information.
If aegis is running in the background, the question will not be
asked, and the files will be deleted.
-Keep
This option may be used to retain files and/or directories
usually deleted or replaced by the command. Defaults to the
user’s delete_file_preference if not specified, see aeuconf(5)
for more information.
-No_Keep
This option may be used to ensure that the files and/or
directories are deleted or replaced by the command. Defaults
to the user’s delete_file_preference if not specified, see
aeuconf(5) for more information.
-List
This option may be used to obtain a list of suitable subjects
for this command. The list may be more general than expected.
-New-Change-Undo
By using this option it is possible to end developemnt of the
change, and remove the change, all in the one command. The
executing user must have both created the change and be the
devloper of the change, or must be a project administrator.
(Order is important here, this option mast appear on the
command line after the -Develop-Begin-Undo option.
-Project name
This option may be used to select the project of interest.
When no -Project option is specified, the AEGIS_PROJECT
environment variable is consulted. If that does not exist, the
user’s $HOME/.aegisrc file is examined for a default project
field (see aeuconf(5) for more information). If that does not
exist, when the user is only working on changes within a single
project, the project name defaults to that project. Otherwise,
it is an error.
-REAson text
This option may be used to attach a comment to the change
history generated by this command. You will need to use quotes
to insulate the spaces from the shell.
-TERse
This option may be used to cause listings to produce the bare
minimum of information. It is usually useful for shell
scripts.
-User name
Ignored for backwards compatibility.
-Verbose
This option may be used to cause aegis to produce more output.
By default aegis only produces output on errors. When used
with the -List option this option causes column headings to be
added.
-Wait This option may be used to require Aegis commands to wait for
access locks, if they cannot be obtained immediately. Defaults
to the user’s lock_wait_preference if not specified, see
aeuconf(5) for more information.
-No_Wait
This option may be used to require Aegis commands to emit a
fatal error if access locks cannot be obtained immediately.
Defaults to the user’s lock_wait_preference if not specified,
see aeuconf(5) for more information.
See also aegis(1) for options common to all aegis commands.
All options may be abbreviated; the abbreviation is documented as the
upper case letters, all lower case letters and underscores (_) are
optional. You must use consecutive sequences of optional letters.
All options are case insensitive, you may type them in upper case or
lower case or a combination of both, case is not important.
For example: the arguments "-project, "-PROJ" and "-p" are all
interpreted to mean the -Project option. The argument "-prj" will not
be understood, because consecutive optional characters were not
supplied.
Options and other command line arguments may be mixed arbitrarily on
the command line, after the function selectors.
The GNU long option names are understood. Since all option names for
aegis are long, this means ignoring the extra leading ’-’. The
"--option=value" convention is also understood.
RECOMMENDED ALIAS
The recommended alias for this command is
csh% alias aedbu ’aegis -dbu \!* -v’
sh$ aedbu(){aegis -dbu "$@" -v}
ERRORS
It is an error if the change is no assigned to the current user.
It is an error if the change is not in the being developed state.
EXIT STATUS
The aegis command will exit with a status of 1 on any error. The aegis
command will only exit with a status of 0 if there are no errors.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
See aegis(1) for a list of environment variables which may affect this
command. See aepconf(5) for the project configuration file’s project_
specific field for how to set environment variables for all commands
executed by Aegis.
