They also support a large number\nof additional options, some borrowed from Unix and some unique to GNU.\n\nSee the file NEWS for a list of major changes in the current release.\n\nSee the file COPYING for copying conditions.\n\nSee the file INSTALL for compilation and installation instructions.\n\nIf there is no file INSTALL, you must be looking at the checked-out\nsource code instead of at an unpacked source tarball (\"release\").  In\nthat case, you should first please read and follow the instructions in\nthe file README-hacking.  Those instructions explain how to generate\nthe auto-generated files needed to build findutils, and this includes\ngenerating the INSTALL file.\n\nTo verify the GPG signature of the release, you will need the public\nkey of the findutils maintainer.  You can download this from\nftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-keyring.gpg.  Alternatively, you could query\na PGP keyserver, but you will need to use one that can cope with\nsubkeys containing photos.  Many older key servers cannot do this.  I\nuse subkeys.pgp.net.  I think that one works.  See also the\n\"Downloading\" section of https://www.gnu.org/software/findutils/.\n\nSpecial configure options:\n\nDEFAULT_ARG_SIZE=\u003cvalue\u003e\n  If this environment variable is defined to a numeric expression\nduring configure, it determines the default argument size limits used\nby xargs without -s, and by find, when spawning child processes.\nOtherwise, the default is set at 128 kibibytes.  If the system cannot\nsupport the default limit, the system's limit will be used instead.\n\n\nTo gain speed, GNU find avoids statting files whenever possible.\nIt does this by:\n1. Checking the number of links to directories and not statting files\nthat it knows aren't directories until it encounters a test or action\nthat needs the stat info.\n2.  Rearranging the command line, where possible, so that it can do\ntests that don't require a stat before tests that do, in hopes that\nthe latter will be skipped because of a -o/-a conjunction.  (But it\nonly does this where it will leave the output unchanged.)\n\nThe locate program and its helper programs are derived (heavily\nmodified) from James Woods' public domain fast-find code, which is\nalso distributed with the 4.3BSD find.  Because POSIX.2 requires `find\nfoo' to have the same effect as `find foo -print', the fast-find\nsearching has been moved to a separate program, `locate'; the same\nthing has been done in 4.4BSD.  If you use locate, you should run the\nincluded `updatedb' script from cron periodically (typically nightly).\n\nThe latest full release is available at\nhttp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/findutils.\n\nThe latest test release (if any) is available at\nhttp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/findutils\n\nDiscussion of the findutils package and ways to improve it takes place\non the \"bug-findutils\" mailing list, which you can join by sending\nmail to bug-findutils-request@gnu.org.  An archive of patches to the\nbug-findutils mailing list is available at\nhttps://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-findutils/.\n\nBug reports, suggested patches and enhancement requests for findutils\nshould be logged at https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=findutils.\n\nChanges to the findutils code are sent to the findutils-patches\nmailing list.  To join, please send email to\nfindutils-patches@gnu.org.  You are also welcome to send patches to\nthat list, but unless you are a list subscriber, you won't be able to\nfollow any resulting discussion.
