# aermpr(1)

remove project

## NAME

aegis remove project - remove project

## SYNOPSIS

**aegis** **-ReMove\_Project** *project-name* \[ *option*... \]\
 **aegis** **-ReMove\_Project** **-List** \[ *option*... \]\
 **aegis** **-ReMove\_Project** **-Help**

## DESCRIPTION

The *aegis* *-ReMove\_PRoject* command is used to remove a project, either entirely, or just from aegis' supervision.

Project aliases to the removed project are also removed.

## OPTIONS

The following options are understood:

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

- **-LIBrary** *abspath*

  This option may be used to specify a directory to be searched for global state files and user state files. (See [*aegstate*(5)](/aegstate/5.md) and [*aeustate*(5)](/aeustate/5.md) for more information.) Several library options may be present on the command line, and are search in the order given. Appended to this explicit search path are the directories specified by the *AEGIS\_PATH* environment variable (colon separated), and finally, */usr/local/lib/aegis* is always searched. All paths specified, either on the command line or in the *AEGIS\_PATH* environment variable, must be absolute.

- **-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.

- **-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 aermpr 'aegis -rmpr \!* -v'
sh$	aermpr(){aegis -rmpr "$@" -v}
```

## ERRORS

It is an error if the project has any changes between the *being developed* and *being integrated* states, inclusive.\
 It is an error if the current user is not an administrator.

## 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.\
