Deprecations / Removals

1.9.1 (2023-02-09)

  • Improve performance in dry-run mode (due to table rendering).
  • Fix issue where files could be overwritten when --fix-conflicts is used.

1.9.0 (2023-02-02)

  • Simple mode now prompts before executing.
  • You can now use capture variables with indexing.
  • Syntax for string transformation has been improved and simplified.
  • JSON support has been added.
  • Simplify variables syntax.
  • Add ability to extract date from arbitrary strings.
  • Improve support for case insensitive filesystems.
  • Indexing fixes and syntax updates.

1.8.0 (2022-02-22)

  • Add a "simple mode" for quick renaming operations in the current directory.
  • Ignore extension flag no longer affects directory names.
  • Default options can be changed via F2_DEFAULT_OPTS.
  • Fix duplicate paths when traversing directories to prevent unnecessary errors.
  • Output is now sorted in dry-run mode.
  • Update notification is now opt-in via F2_UPDATE_NOTIFIER.
  • Version information is now more streamlined.
  • Dry run table output has been improved and made more compact.

1.7.2 (2021-08-23)

Fixes:

  • Path not specified error in Windows when running on a long path has been fixed.

1.7.1 (2021-08-05)

The following enhancements were made:

  • Quiet mode (--quiet) no longer suppresses errors.
  • Help output has been improved and made more succinct.
  • Running F2 without arguments now shows a short help message.

1.7.0 (2021-08-04)

This release brings the following improvements:

  • CSV support (See renaming from a CSV file).
  • Improved no color options. You can now set the F2_NO_COLOR environmental variable or use the brand new --no-color flag to disable coloured output.

  • The backup directory has changed to ~/.local/share/f2/backups on Linux, ~/Library/Application Support/f2/backups on macOS, and %LOCALAPPDATA%\f2\backups on Windows. The previous backup directory (~/.f2/backups) is still supported (in case you have existing backups there), but new backup files will not be created there anymore. This change was made to conform to the XDG specification and conventions for storing application files on each operating system, and to avoid cluttering up the home directory.
