The sixth pretest release of GNU RCS (Revision Control System)
is available at:

http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/rcs/

NEWS summary since 5.7.94:

  • make MSG optional in "ci -mMSG", "rcs -mREV:MSG"
  • bugfixes
    • don't corrupt RCS file for "rcs -m"
    • handle ci on branch with non-strict locking
    • handle unchanged ci on branch
