/* This file, rcs.h, and rcs.c, are intended to define our interface
   to RCS files.  As of July, 1996, there are still a few places that
   still exec RCS commands directly.  The intended long-term direction
   is to have CVS access RCS files via an RCS library (rcs.c can be
   considered a start at one), for performance, cleanliness (CVS has
   some awful hacks to work around RCS behaviors which don't make
   sense for CVS), installation hassles, ease of implementing the CVS
   server (I don't think that the output-out-of-order bug can be
   completely fixed as long as CVS calls RCS), and perhaps other
   reasons.

   Whether there will also be a version of RCS which uses this
   library, or whether the library will be packaged for uses beyond
   CVS or RCS (many people would like such a thing) is an open
   question.  Some considerations:

   1.  An RCS library for CVS must have the capabilities of the
   existing CVS code which accesses RCS files.  In particular, simple
   approaches will often be slow.

   2.  An RCS library should not use the code from the current RCS
   (5.7 and its ancestors).  The code has many problems.  Too few
   comments, too many layers of abstraction, too many global variables
   (the correct number for a library is zero), too much intricately
   interwoven functionality, and too many clever hacks.  Paul Eggert,
   the current RCS maintainer, agrees.

   3.  More work needs to be done in terms of separating out the RCS
   library from the rest of CVS (for example, cvs_output should be
   replaced by a callback, and the declarations should be centralized
   into rcs.h, and probably other such cleanups).

   4.  To be useful for RCS and perhaps for other uses, the library
   may need features beyond those needed by CVS.

   5.  Any changes to the RCS file format *must* be compatible.  Many,
   many tools (not just CVS and RCS) can at least import this format.
   RCS and CVS must preserve the current ability to import/export it
   (preferably improved--magic branches are currently a roadblock).
   See doc/RCSFILES in the CVS distribution for documentation of this
   file format.

   On somewhat related notes:

   1.  A library for diff is an obvious idea.  The one thing which I'm
   not so sure about is that I think CVS probably wants the ability to
   allow arbitrarily-bizarre (and possibly customized for particular
   file formats) external diff programs.

   2.  A library for patch is another such idea.  CVS's needs are
   smaller than the functionality of the standalone patch program (it
   only calls patch in the client, and only needs to be able to patch
   unmodified versions, which is something that RCS_deltas already
   does in a different context).  But it is silly for CVS to be making
   people install patch as well as CVS for such a simple purpose.  */
