    Description:
    Version
    0.10 of the uutils project's Rust Coreutils has been released. This
    release focused on compatibility with the GNU Core Utilities suite,
    with Rust Coreutils now passing 645 of 690 tests, up from 625 with version0.9.0 . Notable
    changes in this release include addition of the mv--exchange option, an OpenSSL backend for checksum utilities, applying SELinux labels at
    creation when using mkdir , mkfifo , and mknod , as well
    as a number of performance and security improvements. The project has an online playground that runs the
    Rust Coreutils directly in the browser via WebAssembly for those who would like
    to try the utilities without installing them. LWN covered the uutils project in
    February 2025.
