Contributing to findutils

Hi! Welcome to uutils/findutils!

Thanks for wanting to contribute to this project! This document explains everything you need to know to contribute. Before you start make sure to also check out these documents:

• Our community’s CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md.
• DEVELOPMENT.md for setting up your development environment.
• Our Review Guidelines for what we expect from a pull request and how reviews are done.

Now follows a very important warning:

Warning

uutils is original code and cannot contain any code from GNU or other implementations. This means that we cannot accept any changes based on the GNU source code. To make sure that cannot happen, you cannot link to the GNU source code either. It is however possible to look at other implementations under a BSD or MIT license like Apple’s implementation or OpenBSD.

Finally, feel free to join our Discord!

Design Goals

We have the following goals with our development:

• Compatible: The utilities should be a drop-in replacement for the GNU findutils.
• Cross-platform: All utilities should run on as many of the supported platforms as possible.
• Reliable: The utilities should never unexpectedly fail.
• Performant: Our utilities should be written in fast idiomatic Rust. We aim to match or exceed the performance of the GNU utilities.
• Well-tested: We should have a lot of tests to be able to guarantee reliability and compatibility.

How to Help

There are several ways to help and writing code is just one of them. Reporting issues and writing documentation are just as important as writing code.

Reporting Issues

We can’t fix bugs we don’t know about, so good issues are super helpful! Here are some tips for writing good issues:

• If you find a bug, make sure it’s still a problem on the main branch.
• Search through the existing issues to see whether it has already been reported.
• Make sure to include all relevant information, such as:
  • Which version of uutils did you check?
  • Which version of GNU findutils are you comparing with?
  • What platform are you on?
• Provide a way to reliably reproduce the issue.
• Be as specific as possible!

Writing Documentation

There’s never enough documentation. If you come across any documentation that could be improved, feel free to submit a PR for it!

Writing Code

If you want to submit a PR, make sure that you’ve discussed the solution with the maintainers beforehand. We want to avoid situations where you put a lot of work into a fix that we can’t merge! If there’s no issue for what you’re trying to fix yet, make one before you start working on the PR.

Generally, we try to follow what GNU is doing in terms of options and behavior. It is recommended to look at the GNU findtils manual (on the web, or locally using info <utility>). It is more in depth than the man pages and provides a good description of available features and their implementation details. But remember, you cannot look at the GNU source code!

Also remember that we can only merge PRs which pass our test suite, follow rustfmt, and do not have any warnings from clippy. See DEVELOPMENT.md for more information. Be sure to also read about our Rust style.

Our Rust Style

We want uutils to be written in idiomatic Rust, so here are some guidelines to follow. Some of these are aspirational, meaning that we don’t do them correctly everywhere in the code. If you find violations of the advice below, feel free to submit a patch!

Don’t panic!

The findutils should be very reliable. This means that we should never panic!. Therefore, you should avoid using .unwrap() and panic!. Sometimes the use of unreachable! can be justified with a comment explaining why that code is unreachable.

Don’t exit

We want uutils to be embeddable in other programs. This means that no function in uutils should exit the program. Doing so would also lead to code with more confusing control flow. Avoid therefore std::process::exit and similar functions which exit the program early.

unsafe

uutils cannot be entirely safe, because we have to call out to libc and do syscalls. However, we still want to limit our use of unsafe. We generally only accept unsafe for FFI, with very few exceptions. Note that performance is very rarely a valid argument for using unsafe.

If you still need to write code with unsafe, make sure to read the Rustonomicon and annotate the calls with // SAFETY: comments explaining why the use of unsafe is sound.

Macros

Macros can be a great tool, but they are also usually hard to understand. They should be used sparingly. Make sure to explore simpler options before you reach for a solution involving macros.

str, OsStr & Path

Rust has many string-like types, and sometimes it’s hard to choose the right one. It’s tempting to use str (and String) for everything, but that is not always the right choice for uutils, because we need to support invalid UTF-8, just like the GNU findutils. For example, paths on Linux might not be valid UTF-8! Whenever we are dealing with paths, we should therefore stick with OsStr and Path. Make sure that you only convert to str/String if you know that something is always valid UTF-8. If you need more operations on OsStr, you can use the bstr crate.

Doc-comments

We use rustdoc for our documentation, so it’s best to follow rustdoc’s guidelines. Make sure that your documentation is not just repeating the name of the function, but actually giving more useful information. Rustdoc recommends the following structure:

[short sentence explaining what it is]

[more detailed explanation]

[at least one code example that users can copy/paste to try it]

[even more advanced explanations if necessary]

Other comments

Comments should be written to explain the code, not to describe the code. Try to focus on explaining why the code is the way it is. If you feel like you have to describe the code, that’s usually a sign that you could improve the naming of variables and functions.

If you edit a piece of code, make sure to update any comments that need to change as a result. The only thing worse than having no comments is having outdated comments!

Git Etiquette

To ensure easy collaboration, we have guidelines for using Git and GitHub.

Commits

• Make small and atomic commits.
• Keep a clean history of commits.
• Write informative commit messages.
• Annotate your commit message with the component you’re editing. For example: cp: do not overwrite on with -i or uucore: add support for FreeBSD.
• Do not unnecessarily move items around in the code. This makes the changes much harder to review. If you do need to move things around, do that in a separate commit.

Commit messages

You can read this section in the Git book to learn how to write good commit messages: https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Distributed-Git-Contributing-to-a-Project.

In addition, here are a few examples for a summary line when committing to uutils:

• commit for a single utility

nohup: cleanup and refactor

• commit for a utility’s tests

tests/rm: test new feature

Beyond changes to an individual utility or its tests, other summary lines for non-utility modules include:

README: add help
uucore: add new modules
uutils: add new utility
gitignore: add temporary files

PRs

• Make the titles of PRs descriptive.
  • This means describing the problem you solve. For example, do not write Fix #1234, but ls: fix version sort order.
  • You can prefix the title with the utility the PR concerns.
• Keep PRs small and self-contained. A set of small PRs is much more likely to get merged quickly than one large PR.
• Make sure the CI passes (up to intermittently failing tests).
• You know your code best, that’s why it’s best if you can solve merge conflicts on your branch yourself.
  • It’s up to you whether you want to use git merge main or git rebase main.
  • Feel free to ask for help with merge conflicts.
• You do not need to ping maintainers to request a review, but it’s fine to do so if you don’t get a response within a few days.

Platforms

We take pride in supporting many operating systems and architectures. Any code you contribute must at least compile without warnings for all platforms in the CI. However, you can use #[cfg(...)] attributes to create platform dependent features.

Release notes

Notes for every published findutils release, newest first. They mirror the GitHub releases.

The 0.1.0 and 0.3.0 tags predate the project’s GitHub releases; their notes were reconstructed from the git history. There is no 0.2.0 tag or release — the version was bumped to 0.2.0 between 0.1.0 and 0.3.0 without one being cut.

📦 Findutils 0.10.0 Release

Findutils 0.10.0 is a GNU-compatibility and robustness release. It sharpens several find behaviors that silently differed from GNU (-printf %T+ formatting, -newerXY predicate validation, --files0-from input validation), fixes an xargs bug where the default command line size could make execvp() fail with E2BIG, improves xargs length accounting on Windows, and continues the campaign of turning panics on malformed input into proper error messages.

This release also folds in the 0.9.2 changes: 0.9.2 was prepared in-tree but no release was cut from it, so everything below covers the full 0.9.1 → 0.10.0 range.

Five people made their first contribution to findutils in this cycle: @SAY-5, @lhecker, @l46983284-cpu, @wtcpython and @aki-kong.

We encourage you to support our project by sponsoring us on GitHub. Your sponsorship helps us maintain and enhance our infrastructure, such as GitHub Actions. Sponsor us at https://github.com/sponsors/uutils.

GNU Test Suite Compatibility

Compatibility is tracked per individual test (PASS/FAIL/SKIP by test name). 0.10.0 stands at:

Compared to 0.9.1, one more GNU test passes (417 vs 416). The bfs suite gained a test upstream (314 vs 313) which findutils does not pass yet, so the pass count is unchanged.

Highlights

GNU compatibility fixes

• find -printf: print a fixed-width fraction for %T+ — chrono’s %.f drops the fraction (and the leading dot) when the sub-second part is zero, while GNU always prints a dot followed by ten fractional digits, by @sylvestre in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/792
• find: reject invalid -newerXY predicates like GNU — the parser used an unanchored regex, so tokens such as -neweraBcmty were accepted as a truncated -neweraB, by @l46983284-cpu in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/784
• find: reject invalid UTF-8 in --files0-from by @wtcpython in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/798
• xargs: cap the default command line size at 128 KiB — sizing command lines up to ARG_MAX made execvp() fail with E2BIG, since the kernel also charges the argv/envp pointer arrays against the limit. An explicit -s may still raise the limit, as with GNU. By @sylvestre in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/791
• xargs: account for quoting on Windows when computing length limits by @lhecker in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/788

Robustness — errors instead of panics

• find: report an unparsable -newerXt year instead of panicking by @leeewee in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/762
• locate: report write errors instead of panicking by @SAY-5 in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/785
• locate: ignore an unrepresentable --max-database-age instead of panicking by @leeewee in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/768
• find: skip broken pipe errors in wasm executions by @aki-kong in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/802

Error messages

• find: avoid the duplicated find: find: prefix in two error messages by @cakebaker in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/774

Project & CI

• clippy: fix warnings (byte_char_slices, useless_borrows_in_formatting, question_mark, manual_assert_eq) by @cakebaker in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/755
• Release 0.9.2 by @sylvestre in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/793
• Release 0.10.0 by @sylvestre in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/804

📦 Findutils 0.9.1 Release

Findutils 0.9.1 is a robustness and portability release. It follows up quickly on the 0.9.0 milestone (which introduced locate/updatedb) by hardening the existing utilities against a series of panics on malformed or unusual input, adding WebAssembly (wasm32-wasip1) build support, shipping statically linked musl binaries for Linux, and reworking how we track GNU/bfs test-suite compatibility in CI.

This release saw the first contribution from @leeewee, who landed most of the panic fixes below.

We encourage you to support our project by sponsoring us on GitHub. Your sponsorship helps us maintain and enhance our infrastructure, such as GitHub Actions. Sponsor us at https://github.com/sponsors/uutils.

GNU Test Suite Compatibility

Starting with this release, compatibility is tracked per individual test (PASS/FAIL/SKIP by test name) rather than by an aggregate count — see “Per-test compatibility tracking” below. Under the new per-test accounting, 0.9.1 stands at:

0.9.1 is primarily a robustness/infrastructure release, so find/xargs matching semantics are essentially unchanged from 0.9.0; the panic fixes harden edge cases (malformed brackets, multibyte escapes, unmapped UIDs, short databases) rather than altering option behavior.

For more details, visit https://github.com/uutils/findutils-tracking/.

📦 Findutils 0.9.0 Release:

We are thrilled to announce the release of Findutils 0.9.0! This release is a major milestone: it introduces the first implementations of locate and updatedb, bringing the project much closer to a complete drop-in replacement for the GNU findutils suite. Alongside these new utilities, this version adds the interactive -ok/-okdir actions, new xargs options (-E, -l, and hyphenated -I/-E values), chained -type arguments, and many correctness fixes. We’ve also hardened the project with a security audit workflow, a SECURITY.md, and CodSpeed performance benchmarks for all four utilities.

This release also lands as the broader uutils effort reaches a new level of adoption: Microsoft now ships uutils-based tooling (microsoft/coreutils), a strong validation of the project’s drop-in, cross-platform approach.

This release saw contributions from 11 new developers.

We encourage you to support our project by sponsoring us on GitHub. Your sponsorship helps us maintain and enhance our infrastructure, such as GitHub Actions. Sponsor us at https://github.com/sponsors/uutils.

Full Changelog: https://github.com/uutils/findutils/compare/0.1.0…0.4.0

📦 Findutils 0.3.0 Release

Findutils 0.3.0 (tagged 2022-01-26) has no GitHub release page, so these notes were reconstructed from the git history between the 0.1.0 and 0.3.0 tags. The version was bumped to 0.2.0 during this period, but no 0.2.0 tag or release was ever published — so this entry covers everything since 0.1.0.

The headline change is the first implementation of xargs, which makes the project a two-utility suite. This release also adds -regex, -print0 and GNU-compatible -printf, and sets up the compatibility testing against the GNU and bfs test suites that the project still relies on.

Highlights

xargs

• An initial implementation of xargs by @refi64 in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/121

find: new features

• GNU-compatible -printf by @refi64 in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/120
• -regex matching by @refi64 in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/126
• -print0 by @refi64 in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/123
• --version on the command line by @sylvestre

find: fixes

• Make multi--exec only match {} + with nothing in between by @tavianator in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/91
• -exec: handle parent directories more carefully by @tavianator in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/92

Compatibility testing

• Automated compatibility tests, in two parts, by @refi64 in https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/129 and https://github.com/uutils/findutils/pull/130
• A script to run the GNU findutils test suite, run it in CI, allow running a single test, avoid rebuilding GNU every time, and document the workflow, by @sylvestre
• Run the bfs test suite in CI by @tavianator

Project & infrastructure

• Code coverage restored via Codecov by @sylvestre
• tempdir replaced by tempfile, and tempfile moved to dev-dependencies (cargo udeps) by @sylvestre
• uucore updated to 0.0.12 by @refi64
• Migration to GitHub-native Dependabot
• Clippy cleanups, README updates (crates.io badge, Travis badge removed) and removal of the unused AUTHORS file by @sylvestre

📦 Findutils 0.1.0 Release

Findutils 0.1.0 (tagged 2021-03-15) is the first tagged release of the project. It has no GitHub release page, so these notes were reconstructed from the git history up to the 0.1.0 tag.

It covers the initial implementation of find: the matcher-tree architecture, the bulk of the GNU predicates, and the test infrastructure the project still uses today. xargs did not exist yet — it arrived in 0.3.0.

Highlights

The find expression engine

• Initial implementation supporting -name, -print and a subset of -type, by @mcharsley
• Logical operators: -o/-or, -a/-and, !, parentheses, and comma lists
• -depth, -maxdepth, -mindepth and depth-first traversal
• -prune
• Directory walking switched to the walkdir crate

Predicates

• -size by @mcharsley
• -newer, -ctime, -atime, -mtime by @mcharsley
• -exec and -execdir by @mcharsley, plus a fix for -execdir on the root directory
• -perm by @mcharsley
• -type: added l, b, c, p and s by @ilius
• -delete by @Arcterus, extended to all file types and made to skip the current directory; tests and fixes by @dahc

Correctness fixes

• -help was matched too aggressively
• A lone - is treated as a filename
• Double negation (! !) fixed by @Arcterus

Portability

• Windows support: path separator handling in tests, testing-commandline argument reporting, and #[cfg(unix)] gating of the permission code, by @mcharsley
• AppVeyor (Windows) and Travis CI configurations by Lei Zhang

Testing & infrastructure

• Fake-stdout dependency injection so tests can assert on exact output, and argument-parsing tests, by @mcharsley
• Integration tests for the find command by @dahc
• GitHub Actions CI workflow by @dahc
• Code coverage via Codecov and tarpaulin by @Arcterus
• Migration to the Rust 2018 edition and rustfmt formatting by @Arcterus
• Various clippy fixes, including clippy::borrowed_box and clippy::unnecessary_wraps on process_dir, by @ilius

Dependencies

Regular dependency bumps via Dependabot: regex (0.2.2 → 1.4.5), walkdir (2.2.7 → 2.3.1), glob (0.2.11 → 0.3.0), tempdir (0.3.5 → 0.3.7), assert_cmd (1.0.2 → 1.0.3) and predicates (1.0.6 → 1.0.7).
