Fixes #15559 # Description The glob command wasn't working correctly with symlinks in the /sys filesystem. This commit adds a new flag that allows users to explicitly control whether symlinks should be followed, with special handling for the /sys directory. The issue was that the glob command didn't follow symbolic links when traversing the /sys filesystem, resulting in an empty list even though paths should be found. This implementation adds a new `--follow-symlinks` flag that explicitly enables following symlinks. By default, it now follows symlinks in most paths but has special handling for /sys paths where the flag is required. Example: ` # Before: This would return an empty list on Linux systems glob /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor # Now: This works as expected with the new flag glob /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor --follow-symlinks ` # User-Facing Changes 1. Added the --follow-symlinks (-l) flag to the glob command that allows users to explicitly control whether symbolic links should be followed 2. Added a new example to the glob command help text demonstrating the use of this flag # Tests + Formatting 1. Added a test for the new --follow-symlinks flag
Nushell core libraries and plugins
These sub-crates form both the foundation for Nu and a set of plugins which extend Nu with additional functionality.
Foundational libraries are split into two kinds of crates:
- Core crates - those crates that work together to build the Nushell language engine
- Support crates - a set of crates that support the engine with additional features like JSON support, ANSI support, and more.
Plugins are likewise also split into two types:
- Core plugins - plugins that provide part of the default experience of Nu, including access to the system properties, processes, and web-connectivity features.
- Extra plugins - these plugins run a wide range of different capabilities like working with different file types, charting, viewing binary data, and more.
