I created rcp, an OSC52 copy tool for your remote server (codeberg.org)

I have been searching for a simple way to copy loads of text from remote servers for a while. This includes files, but is sometimes also only multiple lines from stdout of a program. Oftentimes this is kinda hard to do in terminal emulators, so I wrote a very small program to copy text via Operating System Commands.

This allows the terminal emulator itself to copy the text directly into the host clipboard. No x11 pass-through needed.

Lots of text editors like vim (with oscyank-plugin) or helix already have a functionality like that, but opening large files just to copy them is stupid (also not all servers I admin have the oscyank or helix even installed).

If you want to know, if your terminal emulator supports osc52, please refer to the oscyank-repo, they have a nice list.

In addition to the sibling comment, note that reproducible build systems from Docker to Nix require a lockfile in order to be reproducible, and if you don't provide one, then somebody downstream will provide it instead. By checking in Cargo.lock, you ensure control over the precise versions of your dependencies for all downstream users.
