Add g shortcuts #5

Closed asmeurer closed 2 years ago

asmeurer commented 5 years ago

It's useful for coreutils to have g shortcuts, like gsort, and so on, so that scripts can ensure that they are using the coreutils versions of a command.

would you have time to contribute a pr?

asmeurer commented 4 years ago

Actually what would be more useful to me would be if there were a separate package that used only g-prefixed commands. coreutils replacing common commands like ls on my Mac with GNU versions tends to break stuff.

@asmeurer how about a separate output (call it gnu-coreutils) where all are prefixed with g? ./configure --prefix=$PREFIX --program-prefix=g
