— calculate
a message-digest fingerprint
digest |
[-c ] [-a
algorithm] [file ...] |
digest
writes, for each
file, the calculated sum, and the filename to the
standard output. In check mode, digest
reads each
file, and compare the sum of the listed files with the
real files, reporting any mismatch.
If file is a single dash (‘-’)
or absent, digest
reads from the standard input.
-a
algorithm-c
The default is as if the -a
blake2b256 option had been specified.
The digest
utility exits 0 on
success, and >0 if an error occurs.
The algorithms md5 and sha1 are not considered safe anymore, and should be avoided where security matters.
