Release Notes

📦 Rust Coreutils 0.0.26 Release:

We are happy to announce the release of Rust Coreutils 0.0.26! This version comes with several significant advancements, including the initial support for AIX, ensuring broader compatibility and reach. Despite the short period since our last release, we've managed to fix numerous compatibility issues, further aligning our tools with the latest GNU testsuite, now version 9.5.

This update adds +10 GNU passing tests compared to version 0.0.25.

Beginning of the AIX Support
Updated GNU Reference: We've updated our testsuite to GNU Coreutils 9.5.
Improved Compatibility: Thanks to the community's efforts, we've addressed several compatibility issues, pushing our pass rate even higher.
Automated Builds: Binaries for the latest release are once again automatically generated.

This release saw contributions from 20 developers, including 12 newcomers.
