fd/CHANGELOG.md

Upcoming release

Features

• Add --hyperlink option to add OSC 8 hyperlinks to output

Bugfixes

Changes

Other

10.1.0

Features

• Allow passing an optional argument to --strip-cwd-prefix of "always", "never", or "auto". to force whether the cwd prefix is stripped or not.
• Add a --format option which allows using a format template for direct ouput similar to the template used for --exec. (#1043)

Bugfixes

• Fix aarch64 page size again. This time it should actually work. (#1085, #1549) (@tavianator)

Other

• aarch64-apple-darwin target added to builds on the release page. Note that this is a tier 2 rust target.

v10.0.0

Features

• Add dir as an alias to directory when using -t \ --type, see #1460 and #1464 (@Ato2207).
• Add support for @%s date format in time filters similar to GNU date (seconds since Unix epoch for --older/--newer), see #1493 (@nabellows)
• Breaking: No longer automatically ignore .git when using --hidden with vcs ignore enabled. This reverts the change in v9.0.0. While this feature was often useful, it also broke some existing workflows, and there wasn't a good way to opt out of it. And there isn't really a good way for us to add a way to opt out of it. And you can easily get similar behavior by adding .git/ to your global fdignore file. See #1457.

Bugfixes

• Respect NO_COLOR environment variable with --list-details option. (#1455)
• Fix bug that would cause hidden files to be included despite gitignore rules if search path is "." (#1461, BurntSushi/ripgrep#2711).
• aarch64 builds now use 64k page sizes with jemalloc. This fixes issues on some systems, such as ARM Macs that have a larger system page size than the system that the binary was built on. (#1547)
• Address CVE-2024-24576, by increasing minimum rust version.

Changes

• Minimum supported rust version is now 1.77.2

v9.0.0

Performance

• Performance has been significantly improved, both due to optimizations in the underlying ignore crate (#1429), and in fd itself (#1422, #1408, #1362) - @tavianator. Benchmarks results show gains of 6-8x for full traversals of smaller directories (100k files) and up to 13x for larger directories (1M files).

• The default number of threads is now constrained to be at most 64. This should improve startup time on systems with many CPU cores. (#1203, #1410, #1412, #1431) - @tmccombs and @tavianator

• New flushing behavior when writing output to stdout, providing better performance for TTY and non-TTY use cases, see #1452 and #1313 (@tavianator).

Features

• Support character and block device file types, see #1213 and #1336 (@cgzones)
• Breaking: .git/ is now ignored by default when using --hidden / -H, use --no-ignore / -I or --no-ignore-vcs to override, see #1387 and #1396 (@skoriop)

Bugfixes

• Fix NO_COLOR support, see #1421 (@acuteenvy)

Other

• Fixed documentation typos, see #1409 (@marcospb19)

Thanks

Special thanks to @tavianator for his incredible work on performance in the ignore crate and fd itself.

v8.7.1

Bugfixes

• -1 properly conflicts with the exec family of options.
• --max-results overrides -1
• --quiet properly conflicts with the exec family of options. This used to be the case, but broke during the switch to clap-derive
• --changed-within now accepts a space as well as a "T" as the separator between date and time (due to update of chrono dependency)

Other

• Many dependencies were updated
• Some documentation was updated and fixed

v8.7.0

Features

• Add flag --no-require-git to always respect gitignore files, see #1216 (@vegerot)

Bugfixes

• Fix logic for when to use global ignore file. There was a bug where the only case where the global ignore file wasn't processed was if --no-ignore was passed, but neither --unrestricted nor --no-global-ignore-file is passed. See #1209

v8.6.0

Features

• New --and <pattern> option to add additional patterns that must also be matched. See #315 and #1139 (@Uthar)
• Added --changed-after as alias for --changed-within, to have a name consistent with --changed-before.

Changes

• Breaking: On Unix-like systems, --type executable now additionally checks if the file is executable by the current user, see #1106 and #1169 (@ptipiak)

Bugfixes

• Use fd instead of fd.exe for Powershell completions (when completions are generated on windows)

Other

v8.5.3

Bugfixes

• Fix completion generation to not include full path of fd command
• Fix build error if completions feature is disabled

v8.5.2

Bugfixes

• Fix --owner option value parsing, see #1163 and #1164 (@tmccombs)

v8.5.1

Bugfixes

• Fix --threads/-j option value parsing, see #1160 and #1162 (@sharkdp)

v8.5.0

Features

• --type executable/-t now works on Windows, see #1051 and #1061 (@tavianator)

Bugfixes

• Fixed differences between piped / non-piped output. This changes fds behavior back to what we had before 8.3.0, i.e. there will be no leading ./ prefixes, unless --exec/-x, --exec-batch/-X, or --print0/-0 are used. --strip-cwd-prefix can be used to strip that prefix in those cases. See #1046, #1115, and #1121 (@tavianator)
• fd could previously crash with a panic due to a race condition in Rusts standard library (see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/39364). This has been fixed by switching to a different message passing implementation, see #1060 and #1146 (@tavianator)
• fds memory usage will not grow unboundedly on huge directory trees, see #1146 (@tavianator)
• fd returns an error when current working directory does not exist while a search path is specified, see #1072 (@vijfhoek)
• Improved "command not found" error message, see #1083 and #1109 (@themkat)
• Preserve command exit codes when using --exec-batch, see #1136 and #1137 (@amesgen)

Changes

• No leading ./ prefix for non-interactive results, see above.
• fd now colorizes paths in parallel, significantly improving performance, see #1148 (@tavianator)
• fd can now avoid stat syscalls even when colorizing paths, as long as the color scheme doesn't require metadata, see #1148 (@tavianator)
• The statically linked musl versions of fd now use jmalloc, leading to a significant performance improvement, see #1062 (@tavianator)

Other

• Added link back to GitHub in man page and --help text, see #1086 (@scottchiefbaker)
• Major update in how fd handles command line options internally, see #1067 (@tmccombs)

v8.4.0

Features

• Support multiple --exec <cmd> instances, see #406 and #960 (@tmccombs)

Bugfixes

• "Argument list too long" errors can not appear anymore when using --exec-batch/-X, as the command invocations are automatically batched at the maximum possible size, even if --batch-size is not given. See #410 and #1020 (@tavianator)

Changes

• Directories are now printed with an additional path separator at the end: foo/bar/, see #436 and #812 (@yyogo)
• The -u flag was changed to be equivalent to -HI (previously, a single -u was only equivalent to -I). Additional -u flags are still allowed, but ignored. See #840 and #986 (@jacksontheel)

Other

• Added installation instructions for RHEL8, see #989 (@ethsol)

v8.3.2

Bugfixes

• Invalid absolute path on windows when searching from the drive root, see #931 and #936 (@gbarta)

v8.3.1

Bugfixes

• Stop implying --no-ignore-parent when --no-vcs-ignore is supplied, see #907, #901, #908 (@tmccombs)
• fd no longer waits for the whole traversal if the only matches arrive within max_buffer_time, see #868 and #895 (@tavianator)
• --max-results=1 now immediately quits after the first result, see #867
• fd -h does not panic anymore when stdout is closed, see #897

Changes

• Disable jemalloc on FreeBSD, see #896 (@xanderio)
• Updated man page, see #912 (@rlue)
• Updated zsh completions, see #932 (@tmccombs)

v8.3.0

Performance improvements

• Colorized output is now significantly faster, see #720 and #853 (@tavianator)
• Writing to stdout is now buffered if the output does not go to a TTY. This increases performance when the output of fd is piped to another program or to a file, see #885 (@tmccombs, original implementation by @sourlemon207)
• File metadata is now cached between the different filters that require it (e.g. --owner, --size), reducing the number of stat syscalls when multiple filters are used; see #863 (@tavianator, original implementation by @alexmaco)

Features

• Don't buffer command output from --exec when using a single thread. See #522
• Add new -q, --quiet flag, see #303 (@Asha20)
• Add new --no-ignore-parent flag, see #787 (@will459)
• Add new --batch-size flag, see #410 (@devonhollowood)
• Add opposing command-line options, see #595 (@Asha20)
• Add support for more filesystem indicators in LS_COLORS, see https://github.com/sharkdp/lscolors/pull/35 (@tavianator)

Bugfixes

• Always show the ./ prefix for search results unless the output is a TTY or --strip-cwd-prefix is set, see #760 and #861 (@jcaplan)
• Set default path separator to / in MSYS, see #537 and #730 (@aswild)
• fd cannot search files under a RAM disk, see #752
• fd doesn't show substituted drive on Windows, see #365
• Properly handle write errors to devices that are full, see #737
• Use local time zone for time functions (--change-newer-than, --change-older-than), see #631 (@jacobmischka)
• Support --list-details on more platforms (like BusyBox), see #783
• The filters --owner, --size, and --changed-{within,before} now apply to symbolic links themselves, rather than the link target, except when --follow is specified; see #863
• Change time comparisons to be exclusive, see #794 (@jacobmischka)

Changes

• Apply custom --path-separator to commands run with --exec(-batch) and --list-details, see #697 (@aswild)

Other

• Many documentation updates

v8.2.1

No functional changes with respect to v8.2.0. Bugfix in the release process.

v8.2.0

Features

• Add new --prune flag, see #535 (@reima)
• Improved the usability of the time-based options, see #624 and #645 (@gorogoroumaru)
• Add support for exact file sizes in the --size filter, see #669 and #696 (@Rogach)
• fd now prints an error message if the search pattern requires a leading dot but --hidden is not enabled (Unix only), see #615

Bugfixes

• Avoid panic when performing limited searches in directories with restricted permissions, see #678
• Invalid numeric command-line arguments are silently ignored, see #675
• Disable jemalloc on Android, see #662
• The --help text will be colorless if NO_COLOR has been set, see #600 (@xanonid)

Changes

• If LS_COLORS is not set (e.g. on Windows), we now provide a more comprehensive default which includes much more filetypes, see #604 and #682 (mjsir911).

Other

• Added zsh completion files, see #654 and #189 (@smancill)

v8.1.1

Bugfixes

• Support colored output on older Windows versions if either (1) --color=always is set or (2) the TERM environment variable is set. See #469

v8.1.0

Features

• Add new --owner [user][:group] filter. See #307 (pull #581) (@alexmaco)
• Add support for a global ignore file (~/.config/fd/ignore on Unix), see #575 (@soedirgo)
• Do not exit immediately if one of the search paths is missing, see #587 (@DJRHails)

Bugfixes

• Reverted a change from fd 8.0 that enabled colors on all Windows terminals (see below) in order to support older Windows versions again, see #577. Unfortunately, this re-opens #469
• Fix segfault caused by jemalloc on macOS Catalina, see #498
• Fix --glob behavior with empty pattern, see #579 (@SeamusConnor)
• Fix --list-details on FreeBSD, DragonFly BSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD. See #573 (@t6)

Changes

• Updated documentation for --size, see #584

v8.0.0

Features

• Add a new -l/--list-details option to show more details about the search results. This is basically an alias for --exec-batch ls -l with some additional ls options. This can be used in order to:
  • see metadata like permissions, owner, file size, modification times (#491)
  • see symlink targets (#482)
  • achieve a deterministic output order (#324, #196, #159)
• Add a new --max-results=<count> option to limit the number of search results, see #472, #476 and #555 This can be useful to speed up searches in cases where you know that there are only N results. Using this option is also (slightly) faster than piping to head -n <count> where fd can only exit when it finds the search results <count> + 1.
• Add the alias -1 for --max-results=1, see #561. (@SimplyDanny).
• Add new --type socket and --type pipe filters, see #511.
• Add new --min-depth <depth> and --exact-depth <depth> options in addition to the existing option to limit the maximum depth. See #404.
• Support additional ANSI font styles in LS_COLORS: faint, slow blink, rapid blink, dimmed, hidden and strikethrough.

Bugfixes

• Preserve non-UTF8 filenames: invalid UTF-8 filenames are now properly passed to child-processes when using --exec, --exec-batch or --list-details. In fd's output, we replace non-UTF-8 sequences with the "<22>" character. However, if the output of fd goes to another process, we print the actual bytes of the filename. For more details, see #558 and #295.
• LS_COLORS entries with unsupported font styles are not completely ignored, see #552

Changes

• Colored output will now be enabled by default on older Windows versions. This allows the use of colored output if the terminal supports it (e.g. MinTTY, Git Bash). On the other hand, this will be a regression for users on older Windows versions with terminals that do not support ANSI escape sequences. Affected users can use an alias fd="fd --color=never" to continue using fd without colors. There is no change of behavior for Windows 10. See #469.
• When using --glob in combination with --full-path, a * character does not match a path separation character (/ or \\) anymore. You can use ** for that. This allows things like fd -p -g '/some/base/path/*/*/*.txt' which would previously match to arbitrary depths (instead of exactly two folders below /some/base/path. See #404.
• "Legacy" support to use fd -exec (with a single dash) has been removed. Use fd -x or fd --exec instead.
• Overall improved error handling and error messages.

Other

• Korean translation of the README, see: 한국어 (@spearkkk)

v7.5.0

Features

• Added --one-file-system (aliases: --mount, --xdev) to not cross file system boundaries on Unix and Windows, see #507 (@FallenWarrior2k).
• Added --base-directory to change the working directory in which fd is run, see #509 and #475 (@hajdamak).
• fd will not use colored output if the NO_COLOR environment variable is set, see #550 and #551 (@metadave).
• fd --exec will return exit code 1 if one of the executed commands fails, see #526 and #531 (@fusillicode and @Giuffre)

Bug Fixes

• Fixed 'command not found' error when using zsh completion, see #487 (@barskern).
• fd -L should include broken symlinks, see #357 and #497 (@tommilligan, @neersighted and @sharkdp)
• Display directories even if we don't have permission to enter, see #437 (@sharkdp)

Changes

• A flag can now be passed multiple times without producing an error, see #488 and #496 (@rootbid).
• Search results are sorted when using the -X option to match the behaviour of piping to xargs, see #441 and #524 (@Marcoleni @crash-g).

v7.4.0

Performance improvements

• Reduce number of stat syscalls, improving the performance for searches where file metadata is required (--type, --size, --changed-within, …), see #434 (@tavianator)
• Use jemalloc by default, improving the performance for almost all searches, see #481. Note that Windows and *musl* builds do not profit from this.

Features

• Added a new -g/--glob option to switch to glob-based searches (instead of regular expression based searches). This is accompanied by a new --regex option that can be used to switch back, if users want to alias fd="fd --glob". See #284
• Added a new --path-separator <sep> option which can be useful for Windows users who want/need fd to use / instead of \, see #428 and #153 (@mookid)
• Added support for hidden files on Windows, see #379
• When fd is run with the --exec-batch/-X option, it now exposes the exit status of the command that was run, see #333.
• Exit immediately when Ctrl-C has been pressed twice, see #423

Bugfixes

• Make --changed-within/--changed-before work for directories, see #470

Other

• Pre-built fd binaries should now be available for armhf targets, see #457 (@detly)
• fd is now available on Alpine Linux, see #451 (@5paceToast)
• fd is now in the officla FreeBSD repositories, see #412 (@t6)
• Added OpenBSD install instructions, see #421 (@evitalis)
• Added metadata to the Debian package, see #416 (@cathalgarvey)
• fd can be installed via npm, see #438 (@pablopunk)

v7.3.0

Features

• New --exec-batch <cmd>/-X <cmd> option for batch execution of commands, see #360 (@kimsnj). This allows you to do things like:

  fd … -X vim  # open all search results in vim (or any other editor)
  fd … -X ls -l  # view detailed stats about the search results with 'ls'
  fd -e svg -X inkscape  # open all SVG files in Inkscape
  

• Support for 24-bit color codes (when specified via LS_COLORS) as well as different font styles (bold, italic, underline).

Changes

• A few performance improvements, in particular when printing lots of colorized results to the console, see #370
• The LS_COLORS handling has been "outsourced" to a separate crate (https://github.com/sharkdp/lscolors) that is now being used by other tools as well: fselect, lsd. For details, see #363.

Other

• fd will be available in Ubuntu Disco DIngo (19.04), see #373 (@sylvestre)
• This release should come with a static ARM binary (arm-unknown-linux-musleabihf), see #320 (@duncanfinney)
• Various documentation improvements, see #389

Thanks

Special thanks to @alexmaco for his awesome work on refactoring and code improvements! (see #401, #398, and #383)

v7.2.0

Features

• Added support for filtering by file modification time by adding two new options --changed-before <date|duration> and --changed-within <..>. For more details, see the --help text, the man page, the relevant issue #165 and the PR #339 (@kimsnj)
• Added --show-errors option to enable the display of filesystem error messages such as "permission denied", see #311 (@psinghal20 and @majecty)
• Added --maxdepth as a (hidden) alias for --max-depth, see #323 (@mqudsi)
• Added --search-path option which can be supplied to replace the positional path argument at any position.

Changes

• Loosen strict handling of missing --ignore-file, see #280 (@psinghal20)
• Re-enabled .ignore files, see #156.

Bugfixes

• fd could previously get stuck when run from the root directory in the presence of zombie processes. This curious bug has been fixed in Rust 1.29 and higher. For more details, see #288, rust-lang/rust#50619 and the fix

Other

• fd has officially landed in Debian! See #345 for details. Thanks goes to @sylvestre, @paride and possibly others I don't know about.
• Added Chinese translation of README (@chinanf-boy)

Thanks

A special thanks goes to @joshleeb for his amazing improvements throughout the code base (new tests, refactoring work and various other things)!

v6.2.0

Features

• Support for filtering by multiple file extensions and multiple file types, see #199 and #177 (@tkadur).

  For example, it's possible to search for C++ source or header files:

  > fd -e cpp -e c -e cxx -e h pattern
  

Changes

• The size of the output buffer (for sorting search results) is now limited to 1000 entries. This improves the search speed significantly if there are a lot of results, see #191 (@sharkdp).

Thanks

@Doxterpepper deserves a special mention for his great work that is included in this release and for the support in ticket discussions and concerning Travis CI fixes. Thank you very much!

Thanks also go out to @tmccombs for the work on Debian packages and for reviewing a lot of pull requests!

v6.0.0

Changes

• The --exec/-x option does not spawn an intermediate shell anymore. This improves the performance of parallel command execution and fixes a whole class of (present and potentially future) problems with shell escaping. The drawback is that shell commands cannot directly be called with --exec. See #155 for the full discussion. These changes have been implemented by @reima (Thanks!).

Bugfixes

• --exec does not escape cmd.exe metacharacters on Windows (see #155, as above).

Other

• fd is now available in the FreeBSD ports (@andoriyu)
• The minimal rustc version is now checked when building with cargo, see #164 (@matematikaadit)
• The output directory for the shell completion files is created if it does not exist (@andoriyu)

v5.0.0

Features

• Added new --exec, -x option for parallel command execution (@mmstick, see #84 and #116). See the corresponding README section for an introduction.
• Auto-disable color output on unsupported Windows shells like cmd.exe (@iology, see #129)
• Added the --exclude, -X option to suppress certain files/directories in the search results (see #89).
• Added ripgrep aliases -u and -uu for --no-ignore and --no-ignore --hidden, respectively (@unsignedint, see #92)
• Added -i, --ignore-case (@iology, see #95)
• Made smart case really smart (@reima, see #103)
• Added RedoxOS support (@goyox86, see #131)

Changes

• The dot . can now match newlines in file names (@iology, see #111)

• Fixed absolute path handling on Windows (@reima, #93)
• Fixed: current directory not included when using relative path (see #81)
• Fixed --type behavior for unknown file types (@iology, see #150)
• Some fixes around --exec (@iology, see #142)

Other

• First version of CONTRIBUTING guidelines
• There is now a Nix package (@mehandes)
• fd is now in the official Arch Linux repos (@cassava)
• Improved tooling around shell completion files (@ImbaKnugel, see #124)
• Updated tutorial in the README
• The minimum required version of Rust has been bumped to 1.19.

Thanks

A lot of things have happened since the last release and I'd like to thank all contributors for their great support. I'd also like to thank those that have contributed by reporting bugs and by posting feature requests.

I'd also like to take this chance to say a special Thank You to a few people that have stood out in one way or another: To @iology, for contributing a multitude of bugfixes, improvements and new features. To @reima and @Detegr for their continuing great support. To @mmstick, for implementing the most advanced new feature of fd. And to @matematikaadit for the CI/tooling upgrades.
