Description

This reference page provides a general orientation to the contents of this manual.

cleartool subcommands

The majority of ClearCase commands are cleartool subcommands; see the cleartool reference page.

Information of general interest

The following reference pages are of interest to all users, as the information they contain is useful in various contexts:

cleartool

Object selector syntax, escaping characters, quoting command arguments, object naming rules and restrictions

env_ccase

Environment variables

events_ccase

VOB event records

fmt_ccase

Command output formatting directives

pathnames_ccase

Pathname interpretation and resolution

permissions

Summary of permissions checking for cleartool

query_language

VOB query language

version_selector

Version selector syntax

wildcards_ccase

Wildcards

Object-type independent commands

The majority of commands manipulate specific object types, and it is easy to think of the commands in those narrow terms. However, it is useful to remember that some commands can operate on various object types:

checkvob

Checks hyperlinks to objects

chevent

Changes object event records

chmaster

Transfers mastership of objects to other VOB replicas

cleardescribe

Describes objects

describe

Describes objects

lock

Locks objects

lshistory

Lists the histories (event records) of objects

lslock

mkattr

Attaches attributes to objects

protect

Changes ownership or permissions of objects

rename

Renames objects

rmattr

Removes attributes from objects

unlock

Unlocks objects
