bk id(7.3ce)                BitKeeper User's Manual               bk id(7.3ce)

NAME
       bk id - display the identity of a package or repository

SYNOPSIS
       bk id [-5rS]

DESCRIPTION
       In  BitKeeper,  each  repository has two identities: a package identity
       and a repository identity.

       The package identity is the same across all repository instances of the
       same  package.  Two repositories may synchronize with each other if and
       only if they have the same package identity.  bk id displays the  pack-
       age identity.

       The  repository identity is different in each repository, regardless of
       the package.  "bk id -r" displays the repository identity.

OPTIONS
       -5 Return package identity as an md5key
       -r displays the repository identity
       -S in a nested collection return the  identity  of  the  current  repo,
          rather than the product.
