## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

gtrash is a Go command-line trash manager built as a safer shell-facing alternative to permanent removal with rm. Its identity is tied to the FreeDesktop.org trash specification: on Linux it writes the same trash metadata and files layout used by desktop environments and other compliant CLI tools, while also offering a TUI-oriented recovery workflow.

### Projektgeschichte

The public repository was created in January 2024, with its initial commit dated 2024-01-06 and a v0.0.1 release published on 2024-01-08. The README presents the project as a featureful trash CLI manager that can substitute for common rm habits while keeping files recoverable.

The design focuses on a single static Go binary with multiple subcommands. The core operation moves files into a trash location and records .trashinfo metadata, while companion commands list, restore, remove, summarize, and repair trash entries.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

gtrash entered package-manager culture as a small modern CLI rather than as a long-lived Unix base tool. The official README documents installation paths through binary releases, Go install, Nixpkgs, Homebrew, and AUR-style packages; the input metadata also records Homebrew and Nix packaging.

### Wie es verwendet wird

The everyday use case is replacing direct deletion with `gtrash put`, then using `gtrash find`, `gtrash restore`, `gtrash restore-group`, `gtrash summary`, or permanent removal options when cleanup is intentional. On Linux, normal trash entries live under `$XDG_DATA_HOME/Trash` or `$HOME/.local/share/Trash`, with external filesystems handled through `.Trash/$uid` or `.Trash-$uid` locations.

The README explicitly warns against blindly aliasing `rm=gtrash put`, because sudo, SSH hosts, and partial rm compatibility can surprise users. That caution is part of the tool's package-nerd appeal: it is safer than rm, but honest about Unix muscle memory.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

gtrash matters to package users who want a Freedesktop-compatible trash CLI with Go-style distribution ergonomics. It overlaps with `gio trash` and `trash-cli`, but emphasizes a modern TUI, grouped restoration, static binaries, and rm-like flags without inventing a private trash format.

### Zeitleiste

- 2024-01-06: Public repository initial commit.
- 2024-01-08: v0.0.1 release published.
- 2024: README documents package-manager installation through Go install, Nixpkgs, Homebrew, and AUR-style packages.
- 2025: Repository metadata shows continued maintenance activity into 2025.

### Related projects

- The README positions gtrash alongside `rm`, `gio trash`, `trash-cli`, and `rip`. Its technical foundation is the FreeDesktop.org trash specification, so it is most related to tools and desktops that share that on-disk trash layout.
