# Namespace for file utility methods for copying, moving, removing, etc.
#
# == What's Here
#
# First, what’s elsewhere. \Module \FileUtils:
#
# - Inherits from {class Object}[rdoc-ref:Object].
# - Supplements {class File}[rdoc-ref:File]
#   (but is not included or extended there).
#
# Here, module \FileUtils provides methods that are useful for:
#
# - {Creating}[rdoc-ref:FileUtils@Creating].
# - {Deleting}[rdoc-ref:FileUtils@Deleting].
# - {Querying}[rdoc-ref:FileUtils@Querying].
# - {Setting}[rdoc-ref:FileUtils@Setting].
# - {Comparing}[rdoc-ref:FileUtils@Comparing].
# - {Copying}[rdoc-ref:FileUtils@Copying].
# - {Moving}[rdoc-ref:FileUtils@Moving].
# - {Options}[rdoc-ref:FileUtils@Options].
#
# === Creating
#
# - ::mkdir: Creates directories.
# - ::mkdir_p, ::makedirs, ::mkpath: Creates directories,
#   also creating ancestor directories as needed.
# - ::link_entry: Creates a hard link.
# - ::ln, ::link: Creates hard links.
# - ::ln_s, ::symlink: Creates symbolic links.
# - ::ln_sf: Creates symbolic links, overwriting if necessary.
#
# === Deleting
#
# - ::remove_dir: Removes a directory and its descendants.
# - ::remove_entry: Removes an entry, including its descendants if it is a directory.
# - ::remove_entry_secure: Like ::remove_entry, but removes securely.
# - ::remove_file: Removes a file entry.
# - ::rm, ::remove: Removes entries.
# - ::rm_f, ::safe_unlink: Like ::rm, but removes forcibly.
# - ::rm_r: Removes entries and their descendants.
# - ::rm_rf, ::rmtree: Like ::rm_r, but removes forcibly.
# - ::rmdir: Removes directories.
#
# === Querying
#
# - ::pwd, ::getwd: Returns the path to the working directory.
# - ::uptodate?: Returns whether a given entry is newer than given other entries.
#
# === Setting
#
# - ::cd, ::chdir: Sets the working directory.
# - ::chmod: Sets permissions for an entry.
# - ::chmod_R: Sets permissions for an entry and its descendants.
# - ::chown: Sets the owner and group for entries.
# - ::chown_R: Sets the owner and group for entries and their descendants.
# - ::touch: Sets modification and access times for entries,
#   creating if necessary.
#
# === Comparing
#
# - ::compare_file, ::cmp, ::identical?: Returns whether two entries are identical.
# - ::compare_stream: Returns whether two streams are identical.
#
# === Copying
#
# - ::copy_entry: Recursively copies an entry.
# - ::copy_file: Copies an entry.
# - ::copy_stream: Copies a stream.
# - ::cp, ::copy: Copies files.
# - ::cp_lr: Recursively creates hard links.
# - ::cp_r: Recursively copies files, retaining mode, owner, and group.
# - ::install: Recursively copies files, optionally setting mode,
#   owner, and group.
#
# === Moving
#
# - ::mv, ::move: Moves entries.
#
# === Options
#
# - ::collect_method: Returns the names of methods that accept a given option.
# - ::commands: Returns the names of methods that accept options.
# - ::have_option?: Returns whether a given method accepts a given option.
# - ::options: Returns all option names.
# - ::options_of: Returns the names of the options for a given method.
#
# == Path Arguments
#
# Some methods in \FileUtils accept _path_ arguments,
# which are interpreted as paths to filesystem entries:
#
# - If the argument is a string, that value is the path.
# - If the argument has method +:to_path+, it is converted via that method.
# - If the argument has method +:to_str+, it is converted via that method.
#
# == About the Examples
#
# Some examples here involve trees of file entries.
# For these, we sometimes display trees using the
# {tree command-line utility}[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_(command)],
# which is a recursive directory-listing utility that produces
# a depth-indented listing of files and directories.
#
# We use a helper method to launch the command and control the format:
#
#   def tree(dirpath = '.')
#     command = "tree --noreport --charset=ascii #{dirpath}"
#     system(command)
#   end
#
# To illustrate:
#
#   tree('src0')
#   # => src0
#   #    |-- sub0
#   #    |   |-- src0.txt
#   #    |   `-- src1.txt
#   #    `-- sub1
#   #        |-- src2.txt
#   #        `-- src3.txt
#
# == Avoiding the TOCTTOU Vulnerability
#
# For certain methods that recursively remove entries,
# there is a potential vulnerability called the
# {Time-of-check to time-of-use}[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-of-check_to_time-of-use],
# or TOCTTOU, vulnerability that can exist when:
#
# - An ancestor directory of the entry at the target path is world writable;
#   such directories include <tt>/tmp</tt>.
# - The directory tree at the target path includes:
#
#   - A world-writable descendant directory.
#   - A symbolic link.
#
# To avoid that vulnerability, you can use this method to remove entries:
#
# - FileUtils.remove_entry_secure: removes recursively
#   if the target path points to a directory.
#
# Also available are these methods,
# each of which calls \FileUtils.remove_entry_secure:
#
# - FileUtils.rm_r with keyword argument <tt>secure: true</tt>.
# - FileUtils.rm_rf with keyword argument <tt>secure: true</tt>.
#
# Finally, this method for moving entries calls \FileUtils.remove_entry_secure
# if the source and destination are on different file systems
# (which means that the "move" is really a copy and remove):
#
# - FileUtils.mv with keyword argument <tt>secure: true</tt>.
#
# \Method \FileUtils.remove_entry_secure removes securely
# by applying a special pre-process:
#
# - If the target path points to a directory, this method uses methods
#   {File#chown}[rdoc-ref:File#chown]
#   and {File#chmod}[rdoc-ref:File#chmod]
#   in removing directories.
# - The owner of the target directory should be either the current process
#   or the super user (root).
#
# WARNING: You must ensure that *ALL* parent directories cannot be
# moved by other untrusted users.  For example, parent directories
# should not be owned by untrusted users, and should not be world
# writable except when the sticky bit is set.
#
# For details of this security vulnerability, see Perl cases:
#
# - {CVE-2005-0448}[https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-0448].
# - {CVE-2004-0452}[https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2004-0452].
