what is use of ci command

[big_bull]

Hello,

Yesterday I have a problem with httpd.conf, it is giving syntax error for specific line so I tried to check the httpd.conf but due to typo error instead of vi ci is typed and the httpd.conf is converted into "httpd.conf,v" and some type of code is inserted into the conf file resulting in apache failure.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
root@xxx [~]# ci /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf
/usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf,v <-- /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf
file is unchanged; reverting to previous revision 1.475
done.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have to rebuilt httod.conf by /scripts/rebuilthttpdconf

Will anyone explain what happened actually by "ci"

# man ci

ci is an RCS (Revision Control System) command meaning "Check In" or at least I use to think of it that way. See https://agave.garden.org/~aaronh/rcs...tml/index.html

I think you'd be better off using WHM.
