  1. coreutils

    Cross-platform Rust rewrite of the GNU coreutils

    If the project does not specifically have a policy against it, it's reasonable to wonder whether their contributors have looked at GNU coreutils code. In fact, we know that at least one of the contributors have done just that, because part of the code references GNU coreutils code.

    Mirror of https://gitlab.redox-os.org/redox-os/coreutils (by redox-os)

    redox os also did that
