sccs2rcs is a script to convert an existing SCCS history into an RCS history without losing any of the information that fits RCS’s ontology.
Things to note:
-
It will NOT delete or alter your ./SCCS history under any circumstances.
-
Run in a directory where ./SCCS exists and where you can create ./RCS
-
Date, time, author, comments, branches, are all preserved.
This is a port to Python of a tool originally written in csh by Ken Cox and later hacked by Brian Berliner and myself. See the header comment for detailed history.
Requires Python 3.

To test sccs2rcs, do "make check".
