btrfs-undelete: A simple script for recovering just-deleted files, directories, and wildcards. This script saved my ass just now. (GPLv2)
There's also rmtrash which is a handy compromise, especially if you use an autocompletion.

Linux tool alternatives: 6 replacements for traditional favorites
trash-cli and rmtrash : send files to trash instead of deleting it permanently.
-
trash-d: A near drop-in replacement for rm that uses the trash bin
So what's really is the difference/advantage compared to at least five other similar utilities already existing (trash-cli, shell-safe-rm, rm-trash, rmtrash, crap)? Can't really be that it uses D as the programming language. As a matter of fact why're there five utilities doing the same thing in the first place?

How many times have you installed Arch Linux?
Three initial times on my desktop, laptop and home server and then a few reinstalls after I sudo rm -rf'ed both my desktop and my laptop, lol. Now I use rmtrash.

Can't believe the community?
There are tools explicitly designed for stuff like this, like rmtrash and alias rm=rm -i. However, like everything, tools aren't a foolproof solution: they can only help from making accidental mistakes.

what is you recommended way to protect accidental delete woth rm -rf in opensuse
i ended up using shell-safe-rm plus trash-cli and my own wrapper script around rm that verifies some rules like for example the argument don't start with '/' , if i want to delete for example /home/shin/.local/somefile then the script will not let me and suggest to cd to /home/me/.local and delete from there , same if i do rm /var/somedir.

Ask HN: Can I see your scripts?
I use a script called `shell-safe-rm` [1], aliased as `rm` in interactive shells, such that I don't normally use `rm` directly. Instead of directly removing files, they are placed in the trash folder so they can be recovered if they were mistakenly deleted. Highly recommend using a script/program like this to help prevent accidental data loss.

You could think about using trash-cli or safe-rm if you're too trigger happy with your terminal
