coreutil replacements that aim to protect me from overwriting work.
I lost work by accident one to many times, so I decided to make some safe replacements and added a few nice modern features for fun.
- Verbose by default
- Safe clobber strategies
trash- move files to trash but rename conflicts(name)_00.(ext) (name)_01.(ext)...backup- rename original file to(original).backup~and trash any previous backups.
trashcan use fzf to revert and fetch trashed files, and provides a nice trash previewer.
--revert-fzf and --fetch-fzf have a custom fzf preview with...
- A header section with the
original path,file type, andfile size. - A content section where text is printed, non-text prints
binary dataexcept images can optionaly be displayed with viu
USAGE: trash files.. (--flags)
Move files to the trash.
Revert trash fetch back to where they came from.
Fetch trash files to current dir.
Undo:
-u --undo Undo the most recent trash operation.
Revert and Fetch: (linux-only)
-r --revert trashfile Revert a trash file to its original location.
-f --fetch trashfile Fetch a trash file to the current directory.
Fetch and Revert also manage .trashinfo files.
FZF:
-R --revert-fzf Use fzf to revert a trash file.
-F --fetch-fzf Use fzf to fetch a trash file to the current dir.
FZF Preview Options: (Combine with --revert-fzf or --fetch-fzf)
--viu Add support for viu block image display in fzf preview.
--viu-width Overwrite the width viu images are displayed at.
--fzf-preview-window Overwrite the --preview-window fzf flag. (see fzf --help)
Other Flags:
--trash-dir Override trash files dir. env: SAFEUTILS_TRASH_DIR
--trash-info-dir Override trash info dir. env: SAFEUTILS_TRASH_INFO_DIR
-s --silent Only print errors.
-v --version Print version.
-h --help Display this help.
OPTIONAL DEPS:
fzf: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf (fuzzy find)
viu: https://github.com/atanunq/viu (image preview)
Usage: copy src.. dest (--flags)
Copy a files and a directories.
-u --undo undo the most recent copy operation
-d --dir dirs copy recursively, and clobber conflicts
-m --merge dirs copy recursively, but src_dirs dont clobber dest_dirs
-t --trash trash conflicting files
-c --create create dest dir if not exists
-b --backup backup conflicting files
-s --silent only print errors
-v --version print this version
-h --help print this help
EXAMPLES:
copy boom.zig bap.zig Copy boom.zig to bap.zig
copy -dt util src Copy util to src (trash src if exists)
copy -db util src/ Copy util to src/util (backup src/util if exists)
copy -m util test src Merge util and test dirs into src dir (error if conflicts)
copy -mt util test src/ Copy test and util into src (src/util src/test) (trash non dir-on-dir conflicts)
copy -c **.png img Create img dir and put all the pngs in it. Usage: move src.. dest (--flags)
Move or rename a file, or move multiple files into a directory.
When moving files into a directory dest must have '/' at the end.
When moving multiple files last path must be a directory and have a '/' at the end.
Move will not partially move src.. paths. Everything must move or nothing will move.
Undo:
-u --undo Undo the most recent move operation.
Clobber Style:
(default) Print error and exit
-t --trash Move original dest to trash
-b --backup Rename original dest (original).backup~
If both clobber flags are found it will choose backup over trash.
Rename:
-r --rename Replace only the src basename with dest.
Only works with one src path.
example:
($ move --rename /example/oldname.zig newname.zig) results in /example/newname.zig
Other Flags:
-s --silent Only print errors
-v --version Print version
-h --help Print this help
Usage: repo-open (--flags)
Open this repository on the forge remote, or print the URL.
Supports github.com, gitlab.com, and codeberg.org remotes.
-r --remote remote remote name (default: origin, fallback first supported)
-b --branch branch open branch URL
-c --commit commit open commit URL
-p --print print URL only, do not open browser
-v --version print this version
-h --help print this help
