This is an edit command. It says delete 2 lines starting from line 39.

This says add the following 2 lines after line 40 in the original, i.e.
what was line 40 before any previous line adds or deletes.

The data in the RCS files are stored in fulltext for the latest
revision, and as edit command lists (deltas) for the other revisions.
Let's say that the fulltext has 100 lines. If an edit command refers to
a line which is outside the file which is based on, you will get the
error you got. For example, "d99 1" is OK, but "d99 2" or "d100 1" or
"a 101 1" will give you an error message such as the one you got.

It's not the script that complains, it's the RCS command "co" as shown
in the error message. You can manually check out older and older
revisions (starting with the newest) to find out which revision is
causing the problem.
