| ### Documentation |
| |
| https://docs.rs/same-file |
| |
| ### Usage |
| |
| Add this to your `Cargo.toml`: |
| |
| ```toml |
| [dependencies] |
| same-file = "1" |
| ``` |
| |
| ### Example |
| |
| The simplest use of this crate is to use the `is_same_file` function, which |
| takes two file paths and returns true if and only if they refer to the same |
| file: |
| |
| ```rust,no_run |
| use same_file::is_same_file; |
| |
| fn main() { |
| assert!(is_same_file("/bin/sh", "/usr/bin/sh").unwrap()); |
| } |
| ``` |
| |
| ### Minimum Rust version policy |
| |
| This crate's minimum supported `rustc` version is `1.34.0`. |
| |
| The current policy is that the minimum Rust version required to use this crate |
| can be increased in minor version updates. For example, if `crate 1.0` requires |
| Rust 1.20.0, then `crate 1.0.z` for all values of `z` will also require Rust |
| 1.20.0 or newer. However, `crate 1.y` for `y > 0` may require a newer minimum |
| version of Rust. |
| |
| In general, this crate will be conservative with respect to the minimum |
| supported version of Rust. |
