fixitytester
fixitytester is a command-line utility designed to verify the integrity of files. It operates by calculating cryptographic hash values for specified files and then comparing these computed hashes against a stored set of known-good hashes. This process is crucial for ensuring that files have not been accidentally or maliciously altered since their integrity was last confirmed.
The tool typically supports various hashing algorithms, such as MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512, allowing users
fixitytester is commonly used in contexts where data preservation and authenticity are paramount. This includes archival
