### **Rust Coreutils 0.7.0 Release:**
We are excited to announce the release of **Rust Coreutils 0.7.0** — a performance-focused release with **major optimizations across dozens of utilities**, continued safety improvements replacing unsafe code with safe abstractions, and a comprehensive campaign to eliminate panics on write errors. We also contributed many patches upstream to GNU coreutils, and welcomed their feedbacks and supports, strengthening both projects!
---
### GNU Test Suite Compatibility:
| Pass | 622 | 629 | +7 | 96.28% | 94.59% | -1.69% |
| Skip | 7 | 13 | +6 | 1.08% | 1.95% | +0.87% |
| Fail | 16 | 23 | +7 | 2.48% | 3.46% | +0.98% |
| Error | 1 | 0 | -1 | 0.15% | 0% | -0.15% |
| Total | 646 | 665 | +19 (new tests) | | | |
> **Note:** The GNU test reference was updated from 9.9 to 9.10, adding **19 new tests**. While the pass percentage decreased due to these newly added tests, the absolute number of passing tests increased by 7 and errors were eliminated entirely. Work is ongoing to address the new test failures.

### Highlights:
- **GNU Compatibility & Upstream Contributions**
- **629 passing tests** (+7 from 0.6.0), with **19 new tests** added from the GNU 9.10 update
- Updated GNU test reference from 9.9 to 9.10
- Contributed numerous patches upstream to GNU coreutils, benefiting both projects
- New GNU compatibility fixes across `date`, `fmt`, `kill`, `ptx`, `numfmt`, `cksum`, and more
- Took over maintenance of [`num-prime`](https://github.com/uutils/num-prime), the primality testing library used by `factor`
- **Performance Overhaul**
- Faster hash maps: `rustc-hash` in `ls`, `du`, `tsort`, `shuf`, `mv`; `foldhash` in `sort`
- `unexpand`/`expand`: ASCII fast-path, buffered reads — 14%+ gain in `unexpand`
- `shuf`, `split`, `sort`, `du`: Reduced malloc allocations (+3–6% in `du`, +4% in `shuf`)
- `nl`: Optimized with `itoa` and direct writing
- `true`/`false`: Removed `clap` dependency, smaller binary, faster startup
- `uucore`: Disabled signal setup in simple utilities for binary size and startup speed
- **Robustness: Eliminated `/dev/full` Panics**
- Fixed panics when stderr is `/dev/full` across **20+ utilities** (`echo`, `date`, `sort`, `expr`, `hostname`, `id`, `comm`, `pr`, `dircolors`, and more)
- Generic fix ensuring unrecognized options with `2>/dev/full` do not abort
- **Safety & Code Quality**
- Replaced unsafe `libc` calls with safe `nix` crate wrappers in `uucore` (`umask`, `mkdirat`, and more) and `mknod`
- Eliminated TOCTOU races in `ln`, `tac`, and `install -D`
- `rm`: `--preserve-root` now works correctly on symlinks
- MSRV updated to **1.88**
- **Notable Bug Fixes**
- `date`: Extensive fixes — `-u`/`-s`/`-d` flags, timezone abbreviation lookup and DST, RFC-822 format, `%+`/`%_` modifiers, `--debug`, locale `date_fmt`
- `cp`: Readonly directories, `-a`/`-z` flags, special files, non-UTF-8 directory names
- `mv`: Preserve symlinks during cross-device moves, handle FIFOs in directories
- `ls`: Hyperlink OSC 8 format, dired reports, fd leak on deep recursion, invalid UTF-8 hidden files
- `sort`: Collator panic in worker threads, scientific notation parsing
- `paste`: Multi-byte delimiters, GNU escape sequences, bounded buffering
- `printf`: `%q` shell quoting with control chars and quotes
- `ptx`: `-t`/`--typeset-mode`, multibyte Unicode panic, GNU default behavior
- `numfmt`: `--debug` flag, empty delimiter, null byte handling, error message formatting
- `cksum`: SHAKE algorithms, `--binary`/`--text`/`--tag` errors
- `cut`, `tac`, `tail`, `tr`, `uniq`, `od`, `chroot`, `stat`, `mktemp`, `pr`, `readlink`, `ln`, `kill`, `nproc`, `rm`, `env`, `sync`, `fmt`, `factor`, `wc`: Various GNU compatibility and correctness fixes
- **Platform Support**
- NetBSD and PowerPC build fixes
- Windows: `tac` stdin piping, `test -r/-w/-x`, publish static `*.exe` binaries
- WebAssembly: Publish `*.wasm` artifacts
- `stdbuf`: Support `libstdbuf` in same directory as binary
- NixOS test compatibility fix; added security audit workflow
- **Contributions**: This release was made possible by **23 new contributors** joining our community
