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.

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:
-Changenumber
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.
-Filefilename
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.
-Projectname
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.
-REAsontext
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.
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.
