 2.2 Invoking ci
 ===============
 
      rcs ci [options] file ...
      (or “ci” instead of “rcs ci”)
 
 The ci command adds a revision to the RCS file reflecting the current
 state of the working file.  This operation is also known as “checkin”.
 
 -f[REV]
      Force new entry, even if no content changed.
 
 -I[REV]
 -q[REV]
      ⇒Misc common options.
 
 -i[REV]
      Initial checkin; error if the RCS file already exists.
 
 -j[REV]
      Just checkin, don’t initialize; error if the RCS file does not
      exist.
 
 -k[REV]
      Compute revision from working file keywords.
 
      Do not confuse this with ‘-kSUBST’ (⇒Substitution mode
      option).
 
 -r
      Release lock and delete working file.
 
 -rREV
      Do normal checkin.
 
 -l[REV]
      Like ‘-r’, but immediately checkout locked (‘co -l’) afterwards.
 
 -u[REV]
      Like ‘-l’, but checkout unlocked (‘co -u’).
 
 -M[REV]
      ⇒minus-M.
 
 Multiple flags in ‘-{fiIjklMqru}’ may be given, except for ‘-r’, ‘-l’,
 ‘-u’, which are mutually exclusive.  For a fully specified revision of
 the form ‘BR.N’, N must be greater than any existing on BR, or BR must
 be new.  If REV is omitted, compute it from the last lock (‘co -l’),
 perhaps starting a new branch.  If there is no lock, use ‘DEFBR.(L+1)’.
 ⇒Revision options.
 
 -d[DATE]
 -zZONE
      ⇒Date option.  If no DATE specified, use the working file
      modification time.
 
 -m[MSG]
      Use MSG as the log message.  ⇒Log message option.
 
 -nNAME
 -NNAME
      Assign symbolic NAME to the entry.  For ‘-n’, NAME must be new (no
      previous assignment).  For ‘-N’, overwrite any previous assignment.
 
 -sSTATE
      Set the state (⇒State option).
 
 -t-TEXT
 -tFILE-NAME
      ⇒Description option.
 
 -T
      Set the RCS file’s modification time to the new revision’s time if
      the former precedes the latter and there is a new revision;
      preserve the RCS file’s modification time otherwise.  ⇒Misc
      common options.
 
 -wWHO
      Use WHO as the author.  ⇒Misc common options.
 
 -V
 -VN
 -xSUFF
      ⇒Misc common options.
