GNU Coreutils 9.10 Released With Many Improvements

Earlier this week Rust Coreutils 0.6 released while out today is GNU Coreutils 9.10 as the de facto standard for this set of core utilities on Linux systems and other platforms.

While I generally applaud oxidizing stuff... This one is really bad. Yeah, it's fixed upstream, but @ubuntu seems to not care at all? #rust #canonical #coreutils

🤖 Time to refactor! I'm going live from the Low-Level Programming Workbench to clean up my `wc` clone written in Zig. It's a learn-in-public session, so expect some fun detours!

🗓️ See you Dec 27th, 2025 at 08:00 UTC.

Dang. Ran into another issue with the #rust rewrite of #coreutils. This time with shred.

touch – Dateien erstellen & Timestamps setzen

Der touch-Befehl in Linux ist ein grundlegendes Coreutils-Tool, das leere Dateien erstellt oder die Zugriffs- (atime) und Änderungszeiten (mtime) von bestehenden Dateien auf die aktuelle Systemzeit setzt – essenziell für schnelle Dateioperationen ohne zusätzliche Inhalte. Grundlegende Verwendung: Dateierstellung Die einfachste Anwendung ist das Erstellen einer leeren Datei ohne Optionen – ideal für schnelle Vorlagen oder Tests. Erneutes nutzen des selben Befehls aktualisiert den […]

GNU `mv` has an `--exchange` flag you can use to swap files.

> echo a > a
> echo b > b
> cat a b
a
b
> mv --exchange a b
> cat a b
b
a
