-t-string
Write the contents of the string to the description of each file
listed in the command. The description is an RCS field, shown
in cvs log output. This option deletes any existing descrip-
tion. See also -t.
-u[revision]
Unlock the specified revision of a file so that another user can
commit from that revision. If the revision is omitted, this
option unlocks the latest revision on the current sandbox’s
branch or the trunk. This option requires a script, such as the
rcslock script in the contrib directory of the source. See Essen-
tial CVS (O’Reilly) for how to use this option. See also -l.
-U Set RCS locking for a file to nonstrict, which means that the
owner of the file does not need to lock the file before commit-
ting. (This locking is done by the CVS code and need not be
done manually.)
File locking must be set to strict for CVS to work properly. This
option should never be used on CVS-stored files. See also -L.
-Vn
Write an RCS file compatible with RCS version n. This option is
not used in CVS anymore, and it is not available in CVS 1.9.20
and later.
-xsuffix
Specify the suffix for the RCS file. This option is not used or
available in CVS (all CVS files use ,v as the suffix).
Example
$ cvs admin -kb AcceptanceTest.doc
RCS file: /var/lib/cvs/wizzard/doc/design/AcceptanceTest. ...
