rcs ci [options] file … (or “ci” instead of “rcs ci”)
The ci command adds a revision to the RCS file reflecting the current state of the working file. This operation is also known as “checkin”.
-f[rev]
Force new entry, even if no content changed.
-I[rev]
-q[rev]
See Misc common options.
-i[rev]
Initial checkin; error if the RCS file already exists.
-j[rev]
Just checkin, don’t initialize; error if the RCS file does not exist.
-k[rev]
Compute revision from working file keywords.
-r
Release lock and delete working file.
-rrev
Do normal checkin.
-l[rev]
Like -r, but immediately checkout locked (co -l
) afterwards.
-u[rev]
Like -l, but checkout unlocked (co -u
).
-M[rev]
Reset working file mtime (relevant for -l, -u).
Multiple flags in -{fiIjklMqru}
may be given, except for
-r, -l, -u, which are mutually exclusive.
For a fully specified revision of the
form br.n
, n must be greater
than any existing on br, or br must be new.
If rev is omitted, compute it from the last lock
(co -l
), perhaps starting a new branch.
If there is no lock, use defbr.(L+1)
.
See Revision options.

-zzone
See Date option. If no date specified, use the working file modification time.
-m[msg]

-t-text
