NAME

        aegis new developer - add new developers to a project

SYNOPSIS

        aegis -New_Developer user-name...  [ option...  ]
        aegis -New_Developer -List [ option...  ]
        aegis -New_Developer -Help

DESCRIPTION

        The aegis -New_Developer command is used to add new developers to a project.

OPTIONS

        The following options are understood:

        -Help
                This option may be used to obtain more information about how to use the aegis
                program.

        -List
                This option may be used to obtain a list of suitable subjects for this command.
                The list may be more general than expected.

        -Project name
                This option may be used to select the project of interest.  When no -Project
                option is specified, the AEGIS_PROJECT environment variable is consulted.  If
                that does not exist, the user's $HOME/.aegisrc file is examined for a default
                project field (see aeuconf(5) for more information).  If that does not exist,
                when the user is only working on changes within a single project, the project
                name defaults to that project.  Otherwise, it is an error.

        -Descend_Project_Tree
                This option may be used to request that the command should be applied to the
                project and all its branches and sub-branches.

        -TERse
                This option may be used to cause listings to produce the bare minimum of
                information.  It is usually useful for shell scripts.

        -Verbose
                This option may be used to cause aegis to produce more output.  By default aegis
                only produces output on errors.  When used with the -List option this option
                causes column headings to be added.

        -Wait   This option may be used to require Aegis commands to wait for access locks, if
                they cannot be obtained immediately.  Defaults to the user's lock_wait_preference
                if not specified, see aeuconf(5) for more information.

        -No_Wait
                This option may be used to require Aegis commands to emit a fatal error if access
                locks cannot be obtained immediately.  Defaults to the user's
                lock_wait_preference if not specified, see aeuconf(5) for more information.

        See also aegis(1) for options common to all aegis commands.

        All options may be abbreviated; the abbreviation is documented as the upper case letters,
        all lower case letters and underscores (_) are optional.  You must use consecutive
        sequences of optional letters.

        All options are case insensitive, you may type them in upper case or lower case or a
        combination of both, case is not important.

        For example: the arguments "-project, "-PROJ" and "-p" are all interpreted to mean the
        -Project option.  The argument "-prj" will not be understood, because consecutive
        optional characters were not supplied.

        Options and other command line arguments may be mixed arbitrarily on the command line,
        after the function selectors.

        The GNU long option names are understood.  Since all option names for aegis are long,
        this means ignoring the extra leading '-'.  The "--option=value" convention is also
        understood.

RECOMMENDED ALIAS

        The recommended alias for this command is
        csh%    alias aend 'aegis -nd \!* -v'
        sh$     aend(){aegis -nd "$@" -v}

ERRORS

        It is an error if the current user is not an administrator of the project.

EXIT STATUS

        The aegis command will exit with a status of 1 on any error.  The aegis command will only
        exit with a status of 0 if there are no errors.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

        See aegis(1) for a list of environment variables which may affect this command.  See
        aepconf(5) for the project configuration file's project_specific field for how to set
        environment variables for all commands executed by Aegis.
