it hasn't had a commit since 2021
Was thinking the same thing. Works like a charm, but thinking to look for another tool
R.I.P.
Hey y'all, I began a fork of rip today to have sonething that's more up to day. Currently I'm refactoring the code to better fit Rust 2021 (rip used Rust 2018 originally), but I also plan on adding some QoL features such as restoring arbitrary files
The fork is here: https://github.com/StandingPadAnimations/rip
Pushed a release ๐ https://github.com/StandingPadAnimations/rip/releases/tag/0.14.0
You can install using this command:
cargo install --git https://github.com/StandingPadAnimations/rip.git
Just remember to remove the old installation beforehand
Brings up the topic of how to go about naming the crate as well as publishing a nix package. What are your plans?
My plans currently are to make a new crate and AUR package, though a Nix package is an interesting idea.
I don't yet know what to name the fork though. Some ideas on the top of my head are:
- rip 2: Electric Boogaloo
rip-electric-boogaloo
- rip-XL
rip-xl
- rip-reap
rip-reap
Could just go for reap
and keep it a single word? I had rimp
in my head earlier today
It's been a few months since I last checked this, is there anything y'all want to see added to rip?
Idk a command for listing all deleted entries?
I can only think of smaller things like confirmation for the deletion of very large files, warning if you're doing something dumb like rip ~
, or a form of logging if that's not a thing already
