# Description
Removes unnecessary usages of `Call::rest_iter_flattened` and
`get_rest_for_glob_pattern` and replaces them with `CallExt::rest`.
# User-Facing Changes
None
# Description
This PR updates the uutils/coreutils crates to the latest version. I
hard-coded debug to false, a new uu_mv parameter. It may be interesting
to add that but I just wanted to get all the uu crates on the same
version.
I had to update the tests because --no-clobber works but doesn't say
anything when it's not clobbering and previously we were checking for an
error message.

# Description
The meaning of the word usage is specific to describing how a command
function is *used* and not a synonym for general description. Usage can
be used to describe the SYNOPSIS or EXAMPLES sections of a man page
where the permitted argument combinations are shown or example *uses*
are given.
Let's not confuse people and call it what it is a description.
Our `help` command already creates its own *Usage* section based on the
available arguments and doesn't refer to the description with usage.
# User-Facing Changes
`help commands` and `scope commands` will now use `description` or
`extra_description`
`usage`-> `description`
`extra_usage` -> `extra_description`
Breaking change in the plugin protocol:
In the signature record communicated with the engine.
`usage`-> `description`
`extra_usage` -> `extra_description`
The same rename also takes place for the methods on
`SimplePluginCommand` and `PluginCommand`

The standard test kit (`nu-test-support`) doesn't provide utility to
create file with modification timestamp, and I didn't find any test for
this in `cp` command. I had tested on my local machine but I'm not sure
how to integrate it into ci. If unit testing is required, I may need
your guidance.

This is the first PR towards migrating to a new `$env.PWD` API that
returns potentially un-canonicalized paths. Refer to PR #12515 for
motivations.
## New API: `EngineState::cwd()`
The goal of the new API is to cover both parse-time and runtime use
case, and avoid unintentional misuse. It takes an `Option<Stack>` as
argument, which if supplied, will search for `$env.PWD` on the stack in
additional to the engine state. I think with this design, there's less
confusion over parse-time and runtime environments. If you have access
to a stack, just supply it; otherwise supply `None`.
## Deprecation of other PWD-related APIs
Other APIs are re-implemented using `EngineState::cwd()` and properly
documented. They're marked deprecated, but their behavior is unchanged.
Unused APIs are deleted, and code that accesses `$env.PWD` directly
without using an API is rewritten.
Deprecated APIs:
* `EngineState::current_work_dir()`
* `StateWorkingSet::get_cwd()`
* `env::current_dir()`
* `env::current_dir_str()`
* `env::current_dir_const()`
* `env::current_dir_str_const()`
Other changes:
* `EngineState::get_cwd()` (deleted)
* `StateWorkingSet::list_env()` (deleted)
* `repl::do_run_cmd()` (rewritten with `env::current_dir_str()`)
## `cd` and `pwd` now use logical paths by default
This pulls the changes from PR #12515. It's currently somewhat broken
because using non-canonicalized paths exposed a bug in our path
normalization logic (Issue #12602). Once that is fixed, this should
work.
## Future plans
This PR needs some tests. Which test helpers should I use, and where
should I put those tests?
I noticed that unquoted paths are expanded within `eval_filepath()` and
`eval_directory()` before they even reach the `cd` command. This means
every paths is expanded twice. Is this intended?
Once this PR lands, the plan is to review all usages of the deprecated
APIs and migrate them to `EngineState::cwd()`. In the meantime, these
usages are annotated with `#[allow(deprecated)]` to avoid breaking CI.

# Description
When implementing a `Command`, one must also import all the types
present in the function signatures for `Command`. This makes it so that
we often import the same set of types in each command implementation
file. E.g., something like this:
```rust
use nu_protocol::ast::Call;
use nu_protocol::engine::{Command, EngineState, Stack};
use nu_protocol::{
record, Category, Example, IntoInterruptiblePipelineData, IntoPipelineData, PipelineData,
ShellError, Signature, Span, Type, Value,
};
```
This PR adds the `nu_engine::command_prelude` module which contains the
necessary and commonly used types to implement a `Command`:
```rust
// command_prelude.rs
pub use crate::CallExt;
pub use nu_protocol::{
ast::{Call, CellPath},
engine::{Command, EngineState, Stack},
record, Category, Example, IntoInterruptiblePipelineData, IntoPipelineData, IntoSpanned,
PipelineData, Record, ShellError, Signature, Span, Spanned, SyntaxShape, Type, Value,
};
```
This should reduce the boilerplate needed to implement a command and
also gives us a place to track the breadth of the `Command` API. I tried
to be conservative with what went into the prelude modules, since it
might be hard/annoying to remove items from the prelude in the future.
Let me know if something should be included or excluded.
# Description
Cleanup search terms and help usage to be consistent and include
coreutils so people can easily find out which commands are coreutils.

or
```nushell
help commands | where usage =~ coreutils | reject params input_output

# Description
Fixes: #11887Fixes: #11626
This pr unify the tilde expand behavior over several filesystem relative
commands. It follows the same rule with glob expansion:
| command | result |
| ----------- | ------ |
| ls ~/aaa | expand tilde
| ls "~/aaa" | don't expand tilde
| let f = "~/aaa"; ls $f | don't expand tilde, if you want to: use `ls
($f \| path expand)`
| let f: glob = "~/aaa"; ls $f | expand tilde, they don't expand on
`mkdir`, `touch` comamnd.
Actually I'm not sure for 4th item, currently it's expanding is just
because it followes the same rule with glob expansion.
### About the change
It changes `expand_path_with` to accept a new argument called
`expand_tilde`, if it's true, expand it, if not, just keep it as `~`
itself.
# User-Facing Changes
After this change, `ls "~/aaa"` won't expand tilde.

This PR removes our old nushell `mv` command in favor of the

# Description
As title, currently on latest main, nushell confused user if it allows
implicit casting between glob and string:
```nushell
let x = "*.txt"
def glob-test [g: glob] { open $g }
glob-test $x
```
It always expand the glob although `$x` is defined as a string.
This pr implements a solution from @kubouch :
> We could make it really strict and disallow all autocasting between
globs and strings because that's what's causing the "magic" confusion.
Then, modify all builtins that accept globs to accept oneof(glob,
string) and the rules would be that globs always expand and strings
never expand
# User-Facing Changes
After this pr, user needs to use `into glob` to invoke `glob-test`, if
user pass a string variable:
```nushell
let x = "*.txt"
def glob-test [g: glob] { open $g }
glob-test ($x | into glob)
```
Or else nushell will return an error.

## About the code change
It applys the same logic when we pass variables to external commands:
0487e9ffcb/crates/nu-command/src/system/run_external.rs (L162-L170)
That is: if user input dynamic things(like variables, sub-expression, or
string interpolation), it returns a quoted `NuPath`, then user input
won't be globbed
# User-Facing Changes
Given two input files: `a*c.txt`, `abc.txt`
* `let f = "a*c.txt"; rm $f` will remove one file: `a*c.txt`.
~* `let f = "a*c.txt"; rm --glob $f` will remove `a*c.txt` and
`abc.txt`~
* `let f: glob = "a*c.txt"; rm $f` will remove `a*c.txt` and `abc.txt`
## Rules about globbing with *variable*
Given two files: `a*c.txt`, `abc.txt`
| Cmd Type | example | Result |
| ----- | ------------------ | ------ |
| builtin | let f = "a*c.txt"; rm $f | remove `a*c.txt` |
| builtin | let f: glob = "a*c.txt"; rm $f | remove `a*c.txt` and
`abc.txt`
| builtin | let f = "a*c.txt"; rm ($f \| into glob) | remove `a*c.txt`
and `abc.txt`
| custom | def crm [f: glob] { rm $f }; let f = "a*c.txt"; crm $f |
remove `a*c.txt` and `abc.txt`
| custom | def crm [f: glob] { rm ($f \| into string) }; let f =
"a*c.txt"; crm $f | remove `a*c.txt`
| custom | def crm [f: string] { rm $f }; let f = "a*c.txt"; crm $f |
remove `a*c.txt`
| custom | def crm [f: string] { rm $f }; let f = "a*c.txt"; crm ($f \|
into glob) | remove `a*c.txt` and `abc.txt`
In general, if a variable is annotated with `glob` type, nushell will
expand glob pattern. Or else, we need to use `into | glob` to expand
glob pattern

# Description
Currently, `ShellError::FileNotFound` shows the span where the error
occurred but doesn't say which file wasn't found. This PR makes it so
the help includes that (like the `DirectoryNotFound` error).
# User-Facing Changes
No breaking changes, it's just that when a file can't be found, the help
will say which file couldn't be found:

# Description
This pr is a follow up to
[#11569](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/11569#issuecomment-1902279587)
> Revert the logic in https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/10694 and
apply the logic in this pr to mv, cp, rv will require a larger change, I
need to think how to achieve the bahavior
And sorry @bobhy for reverting some of your changes.
This pr is going to unify glob behavior on the given commands:
* open
* rm
* cp-old
* mv
* umv
* cp
* du
So they have the same behavior to `ls`, which is:
If given parameter is quoted by single quote(`'`) or double quote(`"`),
don't auto-expand the glob pattern. If not quoted, auto-expand the glob
pattern.
Fixes: #9558Fixes: #10211Fixes: #9310Fixes: #10364
# TODO
But there is one thing remains: if we give a variable to the command, it
will always auto-expand the glob pattern, e.g:
```nushell
let path = "a[123]b"
rm $path
```
I don't think it's expected. But I also think user might want to
auto-expand the glob pattern in variables.
So I'll introduce a new command called `glob escape`, then if user
doesn't want to auto-expand the glob pattern, he can just do this: `rm
($path | glob escape)`

## NOTE
This pr changes the semantic of `GlobPattern`, before this pr, it will
`expand path` after evaluated, this makes `nu_engine::glob_from` have no
chance to glob things right if a path contains glob pattern.
e.g: [#9310
](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/9310#issuecomment-1886824030)
#10211
I think changing the semantic is fine, because it makes glob works if
path contains something like '*'.
It maybe a breaking change if a custom command's argument are annotated
by `: glob`.

# Description
Hi,
This closes#10446 , wherein we start implementing `mv` from `uutils`.
There are some stuff to iron out, particularly
* Decide on behavior from ignored tests
* Wait for release/PRs to be approved on `uutils` side, but still can be
tested for now. See [PR
approved](https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/5428), and
[pending](https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/5429).
* `--progress` does not seem to work on `uutils mv` either and have not
checked whether certain `X` size has to be achieved in order for it to
appear, thus something to investigate as well, but thought it wasnt
important enough to not make the PR.
See [issue
comment](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/10446#issuecomment-1764497988),
on the possible strategy to follow, mainly copy what we did with `ucp`.
I still left some comments on purpose particularly on tests, which of
course would be removed before something is decided here. :) @fdncred
