Locking a +revision prevents overlapping updates. A revision checked out for reading or +processing (e.g., compiling) need not be locked. A revision checked out +for editing and later checkin must normally be locked. Checkout with locking +fails if the revision to be checked out is currently locked by another user. +(A lock can be broken with +.BR rcs "(1).)\ \&" +Checkout with locking also requires the caller to be on the access list of +the \*o, unless he is the owner of the +file or the superuser, or the access list is empty. +Checkout without locking is not subject to accesslist restrictions, and is +not affected by the presence of locks. +.PP +A revision is selected by options for revision or branch number, +checkin date/time, author, or state. +When the selection options +are applied in combination, +.B co +retrieves the latest revision +that satisfies all of them. +If none of the selection options +is specified, +.B co +retrieves the latest revision +on the default branch (normally the trunk, see the +.B \-b +option of +.BR rcs (1)). +A revision or branch number can be attached +to any of the options +.BR \-f , +.BR \-I , +.BR \-l , +.BR \-M , +.BR \-p , +.BR \-q , +.BR \-r , +or +.BR \-u . +The options +.B \-d +(date), +.B \-s +(state), and +.B \-w +(author) +retrieve from a single branch, the +.I selected +branch, +which is either specified by one of +.BR \-f , +\&.\|.\|., +.BR \-u , +or the default branch. +.PP +A +.B co +command applied to an \*o +with no revisions creates a zero-length working file. +.B co +always performs keyword substitution (see below). +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.BR \-r [\f2rev\fP] +retrieves the latest revision whose number is less than or equal to +.IR rev . +If +.I rev +indicates a branch rather than a revision, +the latest revision on that branch is retrieved. +If +.I rev +is omitted, the latest revision on the default branch +(see the +.B \-b +option of +.BR rcs (1)) +is retrieved. +If +.I rev +is +.BR $ , +.B co +determines the revision number from keyword values in the working file. +Otherwise, a revision is composed of one or more numeric or symbolic fields +separated by periods. +If +.I rev +begins with a period, +then the default branch (normally the trunk) is prepended to it. +If +.I rev +is a branch number followed by a period, +then the latest revision on that branch is used. +The numeric equivalent of a symbolic field +is specified with the +.B \-n +option of the commands +.BR ci (1) +and +.BR rcs (1). +.TP +.BR \-l [\f2rev\fP] +same as +.BR \-r , +except that it also locks the retrieved revision for +the caller. +.TP +.BR \-u [\f2rev\fP] +same as +.BR \-r , +except that it unlocks the retrieved revision if it was +locked by the caller. If +.I rev +is omitted, +.B \-u +retrieves the revision locked by the caller, if there is one; otherwise, +it retrieves the latest revision on the default branch. +.TP +.BR \-f [\f2rev\fP] +forces the overwriting of the working file; +useful in connection with +.BR \-q . +See also +.SM "FILE MODES" +below. +.TP +.B \-kkv +Generate keyword strings using the default form, e.g.\& +.B "$\&Revision: \*(Rv $" +for the +.B Revision +keyword. +A locker's name is inserted in the value of the +.BR Header , +.BR Id , +and +.B Locker +keyword strings +only as a file is being locked, +i.e. by +.B "ci\ \-l" +and +.BR "co\ \-l". +This is the default. +.TP +.B \-kkvl +Like +.BR \-kkv , +except that a locker's name is always inserted +if the given revision is currently locked. +.TP +.B \-kk +Generate only keyword names in keyword strings; omit their values. +See +.SM "KEYWORD SUBSTITUTION" +below. +For example, for the +.B Revision +keyword, generate the string +.B $\&Revision$ +instead of +.BR "$\&Revision: \*(Rv $" . +This option is useful to ignore differences due to keyword substitution +when comparing different revisions of a file. +Log messages are inserted after +.B $\&Log$ +keywords even if +.B \-kk +is specified, +since this tends to be more useful when merging changes. +.TP +.B \-ko +Generate the old keyword string, +present in the working file just before it was checked in. +For example, for the +.B Revision +keyword, generate the string +.B "$\&Revision: 1.1 $" +instead of +.B "$\&Revision: \*(Rv $" +if that is how the string appeared when the file was checked in. +This can be useful for file formats +that cannot tolerate any changes to substrings +that happen to take the form of keyword strings. +.TP +.B \-kb +Generate a binary image of the old keyword string. +This acts like +.BR \-ko , +except it performs all working file input and output in binary mode. +This makes little difference on Posix and Unix hosts, +but on DOS-like hosts one should use +.B "rcs\ \-i\ \-kb" +to initialize an \*o intended to be used for binary files. +Also, on all hosts, +.BR rcsmerge (1) +normally refuses to merge files when +.B \-kb +is in effect. +.TP +.B \-kv +Generate only keyword values for keyword strings. +For example, for the +.B Revision +keyword, generate the string +.B \*(Rv +instead of +.BR "$\&Revision: \*(Rv $" . +This can help generate files in programming languages where it is hard to +strip keyword delimiters like +.B "$\&Revision:\ $" +from a string. +However, further keyword substitution cannot be performed once the +keyword names are removed, so this option should be used with care. +Because of this danger of losing keywords, +this option cannot be combined with +.BR \-l , +and the owner write permission of the working file is turned off; +to edit the file later, check it out again without +.BR \-kv . +.TP +.BR \-p [\f2rev\fP] +prints the retrieved revision on the standard output rather than storing it +in the working file. +This option is useful when +.B co +is part of a pipe. +.TP +.BR \-q [\f2rev\fP] +quiet mode; diagnostics are not printed. +.TP +.BR \-I [\f2rev\fP] +interactive mode; +the user is prompted and questioned +even if the standard input is not a terminal. +.TP +.BI \-d date +retrieves the latest revision on the selected branch whose checkin date/time is +less than or equal to +.IR date . +The date and time can be given in free format. +The time zone +.B LT +stands for local time; +other common time zone names are understood. +For example, the following +.IR date s +are equivalent +if local time is January 11, 1990, 8pm Pacific Standard Time, +eight hours west of Coordinated Universal Time (\*u): +.RS +.LP +.RS +.nf +.ta \w'\f3Thu, 11 Jan 1990 20:00:00 \-0800\fP 'u +.ne 10 +\f38:00 pm lt\fP +\f34:00 AM, Jan. 12, 1990\fP default is \*u +\f31990-01-12 04:00:00+00\fP \*i 8601 (\*u) +\f31990-01-11 20:00:00\-08\fP \*i 8601 (local time) +\f31990/01/12 04:00:00\fP traditional \*r format +\f3Thu Jan 11 20:00:00 1990 LT\fP output of \f3ctime\fP(3) + \f3LT\fP +\f3Thu Jan 11 20:00:00 PST 1990\fP output of \f3date\fP(1) +\f3Fri Jan 12 04:00:00 GMT 1990\fP +\f3Thu, 11 Jan 1990 20:00:00 \-0800\fP Internet RFC 822 +\f312-January-1990, 04:00 WET\fP +.ta 4n +4n +4n +4n +.fi +.RE +.LP +Most fields in the date and time can be defaulted. +The default time zone is normally \*u, but this can be overridden by the +.B \-z +option. +The other defaults are determined in the order year, month, day, +hour, minute, and second (most to least significant).

If +.IR rev1 < rev2 < rev3 +on the same branch, +joining generates a new revision which is like +.I rev3, +but with all changes that lead from +.I rev1 +to +.I rev2 +undone. +If changes from +.I rev2 +to +.I rev1 +overlap with changes from +.I rev2 +to +.I rev3, +.B co +reports overlaps as described in +.BR merge (1). +.PP +For the initial pair, +.I rev2 +can be omitted.
