man VCP::Source::revml () - Reads a RevML file

NAME

VCP::Source::revml - Reads a RevML file

SYNOPSIS

## revml input class:

   vcp foo.revml                     [dest_spec]
   vcp foo.revml --uncompress        [dest_spec]
   vcp foo.revml --dtd <revml.dtd>   [dest_spec]
   vcp foo.revml --version <version> [dest_spec]
   vcp revml:foo.revml:/foo/bar/...  [dest_spec]

Where <source> is a filename for input; or missing or '-' for STDIN.

DESCRIPTION

This source driver allows vcp to read a RevML file.

For now, all revisions are fully reconstituted in the working directory in order to make sure that all of the patches apply cleanly. This can require a huge amount of disk space, but it works (optimizing this is on the TODO).

OPTIONS

--dtd
   --dtd=0.33
   --version=0.33
Use the indicated DTD version (must be compiled in to VCP) to parse the RevML file.
--uncompress
Force uncompression of gzipped input. If the input file ends in '.gz', the uncompress flag is implied.
ui_set_revml_repo_spec
set the repo_spec, but die if no good. this should be called from a ui handler that will handle exceptions.
