A curated list of command-line utilities written in Rust

Note: I have moved this list to a proper repository. I'll leave this gist up, but it won't be updated. To submit an idea, open a PR on the repo.

Note that I have not tried all of these personally, and cannot and do not vouch for all of the tools listed here. In most cases, the descriptions here are copied directly from their code repos. Some may have been abandoned. Investigate before installing/using.

The ones I use regularly include: bat, dust, fd, fend, hyperfine, miniserve, ripgrep, just, cargo-audit and cargo-wipe.

This guide is written for Arch Linux.

Requirements

systemd version 248 or newer
Use mkinitcpio for initramfs generation

Preparation

Nix is a package manager that you can install in parallel with your system package manager on Linux or MacOS. It allows you to effortlesly build any of the thousands of packages defined in the nixpkgs repository or write your own package expressions. Packages in the nixpkgs repository get periodically built by our CI server so the GIMP dependencies will be obtained from binary cache saving you time.

To obtain Nix, you can simply run an installation script, or use your package manager if it is packaged in your distro repositories. Notably, there is a package in Arch’s AUR and Debian Unstable.

The pull request containing changes for the latest changes for GIMP master is NixOS/nixpkgs#67576. I usually update the branch several times a month to point to t

With GitHub Actions, a workflow can publish artifacts, typically logs or binaries. As of early 2020, the life time of an artifact is hard-coded to 90 days (this may change in the future). After 90 days, an artifact is automatically deleted. But, in the meantime, artifacts for a repository may accumulate and generate mega-bytes or even giga-bytes of data files.

It is unclear if there is a size limit for the total accumulated size of artifacts for a public repository. But GitHub cannot reasonably let multi-giga-bytes of artifacts data accumulate without doing anything. So, if your workflows regularly produce large artifacts (such as "nightly build" procedures for instance), it is wise to cleanup and delete older artifacts without waiting for the 90 days limit.

Using the Web page for the "Actions" of a repository, it is possible to browse old workflow runs and manually delete artifacts. But the procedure is slow and tedious. It is fine to delete one selected artifact. It is not for a regular cleanup. We need
