To find out how many revisions (revisions go from 1 to N where N is an integer greater
than 0) of a file/path are in a channel, issue the following command:
rhncfg-manager revisions channel-label /tmp/dest_path/example-config.txt
The output resembles the following:
Analyzing files in config channel example-channel \
/tmp/dest_path/example-config.txt: 1
