NAME

        aegis new file undo - remove new files from a change

SYNOPSIS

        aegis -New_File_Undo file-name...  [ option...  ]
        aegis -New_File_Undo -List [ option...  ]
        aegis -New_File_Undo -Help

DESCRIPTION

        The aegis -New_File_Undo command is used to remove new files from a change (reverse the actions of the
        'aegis -New_File' command).  The file is removed from the list of files in the change.

        The file is removed from the development directory unless the -Keep option is used.  The -Keep option
        should be used with great care, as you can confuse tools such as make(1) by leaving these files in
        place.

        You may specify a directory name to remove all new files in the named directory tree, other files in the
        tree will be ignored.  It is an error if there are no relevant files.

   File Name Interpretation
        The aegis program will attempt to determine the project file names from the file names given on the
        command line.  All file names are stored within aegis projects as relative to the root of the baseline
        directory tree.  The development directory and the integration directory are shadows of this baseline
        directory, and so these relative names apply here, too.  Files named on the command line are first
        converted to absolute paths if necessary.  They are then compared with the baseline path, the
        development directory path, and the integration directory path, to determine a baseline-relative name.
        It is an error if the file named is outside one of these directory trees.

        The -BAse_RElative option may be used to cause relative filenames to be interpreted as relative to the
        baseline path; absolute filenames will still be compared with the various paths in order to determine a
        baseline-relative name.

        The relative_filename_preference in the user configuration file may be used to modify this default
        behavior.  See aeuconf(5) for more information.

   Notification
        The new_file_undo_command in the project config file is run, if set.  The project_file_command is also
        run, if set, and if there has been an integration recently.  See aepconf(5) for more information.

   Process Side Effects
        This command will cancel any build or test registrations, because deleting a file logically invalidates
        them.

        The difference file (,D) will also be removed, however any DMT derived files (e.g a .o file from a .c
        file) will not be removed.  This is because aegis is decoupled from the DMT, and cannot know what these
        derived file may be called.  You may need to delete derived files manually.

OPTIONS

        The following options are understood:

        -BAse_RElative
                This option may be used to cause relative filenames to be considered relative to the base of the
                source tree.  See aeuconf(5) for the corresponding user preference.

        -CUrrent_RElative
                This option may be used to cause relative filenames to be considered relative to the current
                directory.  This is usually the default.  See aeuconf(5) for the corresponding user preference.

        -Change number
                This option may be used to specify a particular change within a project.  See aegis(1) for a
                complete description of this option.

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

        -Interactive
                Specify that aegis should ask the user for confirmation before deleting each file.  Answer the
                question yes to delete the file, or no to keep the file.  You can also answer all to delete the
                file and all that follow, or none to keep the file and all that follow.

                Defaults to the user's delete_file_preference if not specified, see aeuconf(5) for more
                information.

                If aegis is running in the background, the question will not be asked, and the files will be
                deleted.

        -Keep
                This option may be used to retain files and/or directories usually deleted or replaced by the
                command.  Defaults to the user's delete_file_preference if not specified, see aeuconf(5) for
                more information.

        -No_Keep
                This option may be used to ensure that the files and/or directories are deleted or replaced by
                the command.  Defaults to the user's delete_file_preference if not specified, see aeuconf(5) for
                more information.

        -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.

        -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.

        -Verify_Symbolic_Links
                This option may be used to request that the symbolic links, or hard links, or file copies, in
                the work area be updated to reflect the current state of the baseline.  This is controlled by
                the development_directory_style field of the project configuration file.  Only files which are
                not involved in the change are updated.  See also the “symbolic_links_preference” field of
                aeuconf(5).  This option is the default, if meaningful for your configuration.  The name is an
                historical accident, hard links and file copies are included.

        -Assume_Symbolic_Links
                This option may be used to request that no update of baseline mirror files take place.  This
                options is useful when you definitely know the files' up-to-date-ness isn't important right now;
                incorrect use of this option may have unanticipated build side-effects.  See also the
                “symbolic_links_preference” field of aeuconf(5).  This option is the default, if not meaningful
                for your configuration.  The name is an historical accident, hard links and file copies are
                included.

        -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.

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

ERRORS

        It is an error if the change is not in the being developed state.
        It is an error if the change is not assigned to the current user.
        It is an error if the file is not in the change.
        It is an error if the file was not added to the change with the 'aegis -New_File' command.

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.
