Its README presents it as a compatibility tool for external hard drives and flash drives. ### Historique du projet The GitHub repository was created in August 2014. The README says the project was created to address operating-system-specific quirks that make naively formatted UDF devices fail across platforms, including block-size expectations, partition-table behavior, and macOS full-disk mounting behavior. ### Historique d'adoption The project remains a focused utility rather than a broad platform. Its official release history shows incremental fixes around OS and device support, including macOS 10.12 support, loop devices, udftools 2.0+, NVMe, and broader block-device handling. ### Modes d'utilisation Users run the script against a Linux device such as /dev/sdx or a macOS device such as /dev/diskN, supplying a volume label. The script detects block size, validates dependencies, can wipe the target, formats with UDF revision 2.01 for compatibility, and writes a fake MBR unless disabled. ### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent format-udf matters to package nerds because it codifies a pile of cross-platform filesystem edge cases in one auditable shell script. It is the kind of small system package that exists because the underlying native tools are powerful but not friendly to a portable-disk workflow. ### Chronologie - 2014: GitHub repository created. - 2016: Release added macOS 10.12 support. - 2018: Release added support for udftools 2.0 and newer. - 2020: Releases added Linux NVMe and broader block-device support. ### Related projects - format-udf depends on platform tools such as mkudffs or newfs_udf and wraps Universal Disk Format workflows. Its README discusses the fake-MBR technique used to improve Windows compatibility for whole-disk UDF volumes. ### Sources - - - - ## Notes de sécurité narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Risque Geiger:** vert / faible - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Détails de la base source - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** format-udf - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** stable ## Liens liés - [Source-control packages](https://pkg.so/fr/source-control-tools/) - Belongs to a source-control command family. - [Terminal utility packages](https://pkg.so/fr/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Text processing packages](https://pkg.so/fr/text-processing-tools/) - Matched text, document, or structured-data processing metadata. - [Networking and protocol packages](https://pkg.so/fr/networking-protocol-tools/) - Matched network, protocol, or remote-service metadata. - [tree](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/tree/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, filesystem, system. - [acl](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/acl/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, filesystem, system. - [wimlib](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/wimlib/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, filesystem, system. - [attr](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/attr/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, filesystem, system. - [libfuse](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/libfuse/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, filesystem, system. - [dysk](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/dysk/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, filesystem, system. - [dust](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/dust/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, filesystem, system. - [stow](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/stow/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, filesystem, system. - [dfc](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/dfc/) - Local package facts share a topical domain.
