safe-rm 0.3 (Default branch)

safe-rm is intended to prevent the accidental deletion of important files by replacing /bin/rm with a wrapper which checks the given arguments against a configurable blacklist of files and directories that should never be removed. Users who attempt to delete one of these protected files or directories will not be able to do so and will be shown a warning message instead. Protected paths can be set both at the site and user levels. License: GNU General Public License v3 Changes:
This release fixes a bug which caused safe-rm to skip the full blacklist checks when dealing with certain files and directories in the working directory. Previously, unless the argument you passed to safe-rm contained a slash, it would not get the real (absolute) path of the file before checking against the blacklist. Image
