SYNOPSIS

aegis -Review_FAIL -File reason-file [ option... ]

DESCRIPTION

The aegis -Review_FAIL command is used to inform aegis that a change has failed review.

The change will be returned from the being reviewed state to the being developed state.
The change will cease to be assigned to the current user, and will be reassigned to the
originating developer. boxwid = 1 down S2: box "being" "developed" arrow " develop"
ljust " end" ljust box "awaiting" "review" arrow " review" ljust " begin" ljust S3: box
"being" "reviewed"

T5: spline -> from S3.e then right 0.5 then up 2 then to S2.e "review " rjust "fail "
rjust at T5.c + (0.5,0)

The developer will be notified by mail. See the review_fail_notify_command in aepattr(5)
for more information.

The reason-file will contain a description of why the change was failed. The file is in
plain text. It is recommended that you only use newline to terminate paragraphs, (rather
than to terminate lines) as this will result in better formatting in the various
listings.

Notification
On successful completion of this command, the review_fail_notify_command field of the
project attributes is run, if set. See aepattr(5) and aepa(1) for more information.

OPTIONS

The following options are understood:

-Change number
This option may be used to specify a particular change within a project. See
aegis(1) for a complete description of this option.

-Edit
Edit the attributes with a text editor, this is usually more convenient than
supplying a text file. The VISUAL and then EDITOR environment variables are
consulted for the name of the editor to use; defaults to vi(1) if neither is set.
See the visual_command and editor_command fields in aeuconf(1) for how to
override this specifically for Aegis.

Warning: Aegis tries to be well behaved when faced with errors, so the temporary
file is left in your home directory where you can edit it further and re-use it
with a -file option.

The -edit option may not be used in the background, or when the standard input is
not a terminal.

-Edit_BackGround
Edit the attributes with a dumb text editor, this is most often desired when edit
commands are being piped into the editor via the standard input. Only the EDITOR
environment variable is consulted for the name of the editor to use; it is a
fatal error if it is not set. See the editor_command field in aeuconf(1) for how
to override this specifically for Aegis.

-File filename
Take the attributes from the specified file. The filename `-' is understood to
mean the standard input.

-Help
This option may be used to obtain more information about how to use the aegis
program.

-List
This option may be used to obtain a list of suitable subjects for this command.
The list may be more general than expected.

-Project name
This option may be used to select the project of interest. When no -Project
option is specified, the AEGIS_PROJECT environment variable is consulted. If
that does not exist, the user's $HOME/.aegisrc file is examined for a default
project field (see aeuconf(5) for more information). If that does not exist,
when the user is only working on changes within a single project, the project
name defaults to that project. Otherwise, it is an error.

-REAson text
This option may be used to provide the failure reason on the command line, rather
than in a file. You will need to use quotes to insulate the spaces from the
shell.

-TERse
This option may be used to cause listings to produce the bare minimum of
information. It is usually useful for shell scripts.

-Verbose
This option may be used to cause aegis to produce more output. By default aegis
only produces output on errors. When used with the -List option this option
causes column headings to be added.

-Wait This option may be used to require Aegis commands to wait for access locks, if
they cannot be obtained immediately. Defaults to the user's lock_wait_preference
if not specified, see aeuconf(5) for more information.

-No_Wait
This option may be used to require Aegis commands to emit a fatal error if access
locks cannot be obtained immediately. Defaults to the user's
lock_wait_preference if not specified, see aeuconf(5) for more information.

See also aegis(1) for options common to all aegis commands.

All options may be abbreviated; the abbreviation is documented as the upper case letters,
all lower case letters and underscores (_) are optional. You must use consecutive
sequences of optional letters.

All options are case insensitive, you may type them in upper case or lower case or a
combination of both, case is not important.

For example: the arguments "-project, "-PROJ" and "-p" are all interpreted to mean the
-Project option. The argument "-prj" will not be understood, because consecutive
optional characters were not supplied.

Options and other command line arguments may be mixed arbitrarily on the command line,
after the function selectors.

The GNU long option names are understood. Since all option names for aegis are long,
this means ignoring the extra leading '-'. The "--option=value" convention is also
understood.

RECOMMENDED ALIAS

The recommended alias for this command is
csh% alias aerfail 'aegis -rfail \!* -v'
sh$ aerfail(){aegis -rfail "$@" -v}

ERRORS

It is an error if the change is not in the being reviewed state.
It is an error if the current user is not a reviewer for the project.
It is an error if the current user developed the change and the project is configured to
disallow developers to review their own changes (default).

EXIT STATUS

The aegis command will exit with a status of 1 on any error. The aegis command will only
exit with a status of 0 if there are no errors.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

See aegis(1) for a list of environment variables which may affect this command. See
aepconf(5) for the project configuration file's project_specific field for how to set
environment variables for all commands executed by Aegis.
