Changelog History

• v8.5.2 Changes

  🛠 Bugfixes

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

• v8.5.1 Changes

  🛠 Bugfixes

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

• v8.5.0 Changes

  🔋 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 Changes

  🔋 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 Changes

  🛠 Bugfixes

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

• v8.3.1 Changes

  🛠 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 Changes

  🐎 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)
