The three most important RCS commands are:
| ci | Check in revisions (put a file under RCS control). |
| co | Check out revisions. |
| rcs | Set up or change attributes of RCS files. |
Two commands provide information about RCS files:
| ident | Extract keyword values from an RCS file. |
| rlog | Display a summary (log) about the revisions in an RCS file. |
You can compare RCS files with these commands:
| merge | Incorporate changes from two files into a third file. |
| rcsdiff | Report differences between revisions. |
| rcsmerge | Incorporate changes from two RCS files into a third RCS file. |
The following commands help with configuration management. However, they are considered optional, so they are not always installed.
| rcsclean | Remove working files that have not been changed. |
| rcsfreeze | Label the files that make up a configuration. |
