Its README frames the tool as a wrapper around cp, mv, and ls, trading generality for a familiar desktop-like verb set: x for cut, c for copy, v for paste, and l for list. Early commits fixed quoting, made the package bpkg-friendly, printed errors to stderr, and added dotfile support. The project was already small and largely complete by the v1.0.1 tag later in January 2015, with Homebrew installation added in 2016. ### Adoptionsgeschichte xcv never became a broad Unix primitive; its adoption story is that of a tiny convenience command packaged for people who like shell workflows but occasionally want a clipboard-like file staging area. The README documents Homebrew, bpkg, and npm installation paths, pointing to cross-ecosystem packaging rather than a large upstream ecosystem. ### Wie es verwendet wird The user runs xcv c or xcv x with file arguments, then changes directories and runs xcv v to copy staged files into the current directory. xcv l lists staged files before pasting. $HOME/.xcv is a transient staging directory used by the tool, not a user-authored config file. The implementation recreates it when a new cut or copy operation starts and clears it after paste. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren xcv is interesting as a package because it is almost aggressively simple: a Bash wrapper that packages a file-manager metaphor for terminals. It is the kind of small CLI that package indexes preserve even when its whole behavior can be understood in one screen of shell. ### Zeitleiste - 2015-01-01: Initial commit and v1.0.0 tag. - 2015-01-02: Early fixes for quoting, bpkg packaging, stderr output, and dotfile support. - 2015-01-18: v1.0.1 tag. - 2016-01-25: Homebrew installation added to the README. ### Related projects - cp, mv, and ls: core commands that xcv wraps. - bpkg and npm: alternative installation channels documented by the project. - Shell aliases such as fsx, fsc, fsv, and fsl: README-suggested shortcuts for the four actions. ### Quellen - Git history and tags: https://github.com/busterc/xcv - README, busterc/xcv: https://github.com/busterc/xcv#readme - xcv script: https://github.com/busterc/xcv/blob/master/xcv ## Sicherheitshinweise narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger-Risiko:** grün / niedrig - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Details aus der Quelldatenbank - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** xcv - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Head Version:** HEAD - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** head, stable ## Verwandte Links - [Source-control packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/source-control-tools/) - Belongs to a source-control command family. - [Terminal utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Networking and protocol packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/networking-protocol-tools/) - Matched network, protocol, or remote-service metadata. - [Homebrew utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew-utility-packages/) - Matched Homebrew package provider. - [fpart](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/fpart/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, file-management, files, system. - [bashish](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/bashish/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: bash, cli, shell, system. - [ccd2iso](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/ccd2iso/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, file-management, system. - [czkawka](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/czkawka/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, file-management, system. - [ddh](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/ddh/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, file-management, system. - [detox](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/detox/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, file-management, system. - [dupseek](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/dupseek/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, file-management, system. - [dust](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/dust/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, file-management, system. - [chokidar-cli](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/npm/chokidar-cli/) - Local package facts share a topical domain.
