Command "ident"

[Rainer Stempel]

Hi,

Can anybody give me some detailed information about the command "ident". I'm
going to use version strings within source files. Relating to the CVS
documentation it should be possible to retrieve the "version information" with
that command (from binaries as well). But it isn't in the download file of CVS
and I haven't found it on the web-page (http://www.cvshome.org).

Can anybody help?

Regards, Rainer
