## admin--Administration front end for rcs

- Requires: repository, working directory.
- Changes: repository.
- Synonym: rcs

This is the CVS interface to assorted administrative RCS facilities, documented in rcs(1). `admin` simply passes all its options and arguments to the `rcs` command; it does no filtering or other processing. This command does work recursively, however, so extreme care should be used.

If there is a group whose name matches a compiled in value which defaults to `cvsadmin`, only members of that group can use `cvs admin`. To disallow `cvs admin` for all users, create a group with no users in it.
