📦 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:

Result find (GNU suite) bfs suite
Pass 416 267
Fail 78 40
Skip 1 6
Total 495 313

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/.

Highlights

Robustness — no more panics on malformed input

  • find -ls: don't panic on an unmapped owner UID/GID by @leeewee in #721
  • find -name: don't panic on a malformed POSIX bracket class by @leeewee in #722
  • find -printf: don't panic on a multibyte char after an octal escape by @leeewee in #723
  • find -printf: correctly test an octal escape before a multibyte char by @leeewee in #727
  • find -printf: reject an over-large field width instead of panicking by @leeewee in #734
  • xargs: do not panic on empty input in replace (-I) mode by @leeewee in #736
  • locate: don't panic on a too-short --database file by @leeewee in #718

Portability: WebAssembly and static musl binaries

  • Support compiling for non-Unix targets such as wasm, and build + lint the wasm32-wasip1 target in CI by @sylvestre in #725
  • Build statically linked musl binaries for x86_64 and aarch64 by @sylvestre in #741

xargs

  • Clarify the -x and -t help text by @jmr in #708

Project, CI & release

  • Per-test GNU/bfs comparison and PR comment, modeled on the uutils sed/grep GnuTests workflow by @sylvestre in #726
  • Define the [profile.dist] used by cargo-dist by @sylvestre in #739
  • Inherit lto = "thin" in Cargo.toml by @oech3 in #740
  • Add 2 missing binaries to latest-commit by @oech3 in #743
  • CONTRIBUTING.md: replace coreutils references with findutils by @oech3 in #738

Dependencies

Dependency and GitHub Action bumps via Dependabot and a manual crate refresh (@xtqqczze, #729): itertools (0.14.0 → 0.15.0, #742), regex (1.12.3 → 1.12.4, #728), cargo-dist (0.28.0 → 0.32.0, #748), actions/checkout (4 → 6 → 7, #711/#744), codecov/codecov-action (6 → 7, #712), and moonrepo/setup-rust (0 → 1, #709).

📦 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.
