recall a change for further development

## NAME

aegis develop end undo - recall a change for further development

## SYNOPSIS

**aegis** **-Develop\_End\_Undo** *change-number* \[ *option*... \]\
 **aegis** **-Develop\_End\_Undo** **-List** \[ *option*... \]\
 **aegis** **-Develop\_End\_Undo** **-Help**

## DESCRIPTION

The *aegis* *-Develop\_End\_Undo* command is used to recall a change for further development.

Successful execution of this command returns the change to the *being developed* state. boxwid = 1 down S2: box "being" "developed" arrow " develop" ljust " end" ljust S3: box "awaiting" "review" arrow " review" ljust " begin" ljust S4: box "being" "reviewed" arrow " review" ljust " pass" ljust S5: box "awaiting" "integration" T3: spline -\> from S3.w then left 0.50 then up 1 	then to S2.w T4: spline -\> from S4.w then left 0.75 then up 2 	then to S2.w T5: spline -\> from S5.w then left 1.00 then up 3 	then to S2.w "develop end " rjust "undo " rjust at S2.w

The files are changed back to being owned by the current user, and cease to be read-only.

### Notification

On successful completion of the command, the *develop\_end\_undo\_notify\_command* field of the project attributes file is run, if set.  See [*aepa*(1)](/aepa/1.md) and [*aepattr*(5)](/aepattr/5.md) for more information.

## OPTIONS

The following options are understood:

- **-Change** *number*

  This option may be used to specify a particular change within a project. See [*aegis*(1)](/aegis/1.md) for a complete description of this option.

- **-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)](/aeuconf/5.md) 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.

- **-REAson** *text*

  This option may be used to attach a comment to the change history generated by this command.  You will need to use quotes to insulate the spaces from the shell.

- **-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)](/aeuconf/5.md) 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)](/aeuconf/5.md) for more information.

See also [*aegis*(1)](/aegis/1.md) 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 aedeu 'aegis -deu \!* -v'
sh$	aedeu(){aegis -deu "$@" -v}
```

## ERRORS

It is an error if the change is not in one of the *awaiting review* or *being reviewed* or *awaiting integration* states.

If is an error if the project has been configured to use the *awaiting review* state, and the change is currently in the *being reviewed* state. This is because the change currently belongs to the reviewer.

It is an error if the change was not developed by the current user.

## 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)](/aegis/1.md) for a list of environment variables which may affect this command. See [*aepconf*(5)](/aepconf/5.md) for the project configuration file's *project\_specific* field for how to set environment variables for all commands executed by Aegis.\
