VCS::SCCS
   An attempt to convert SCCS files to something more modern

DESCRIPTION
   SCCS (Source Code Control System) is a historical and maybe even
   obsolete VCS (Version Control System).

   CSSC is the GNU Project's replacement for SCCS.

   This interface aims at the possibility to read those files,
   without the need of the sccs utility set, and open up to the
   possibility of scripts that use it to convert to more modern
   VCSs like git, Mercurial, or subversion.

PREREQUISITES
   perl-5.6.x

   Converted our own repositories with perl version 5.6.2, 5.8.x-dor
   and 5.10.0. Should work fine with all newer perl releases.

BUILDING AND INSTALLATION
   As all CPAN modules:
       # perl Makefile.PL
       # make test
       # make install

USING IT
   Start with the documentation, so you get a grasp of what can and
   cannot be done

   $ perldoc VCS::SCCS

   If you want to dive into the deep, and simply convert your current
   SCCS folder tree to git, use examples/sccs2git-r which recursively
   scans down from the current directory for SCCS repositories and
   merges them down into a single git repository

   $ cd /my/src/project/
   $ perl /path/to/VSC-SCCS/examples/sccs2git-r
   $ git status

   If you plan to do more conversions, change the first line of the
   file examples/sccs2git-r to reflect the location of your perl binary
   and install it into somewhere in your $PATH and make it executable.
   The call `perl Makefile.PL` will ask you to install this script.
