SYNC(1)

💾 SYNC(1) — the manual page, bestie edition ✨

Okay so picture this: it's sync, from the General Commands Manual, and she is literally the most "just do it and don't ask questions" icon in the whole toolbox. Buckle up 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

sync — synchronize cached writes to persistent storage 💅

Like, she takes all those writes chilling in the cache and is like "bestie, we're making this official."

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

sync [OPTION]... FILE...

Yes queen, options and files, in that order, ... means you can stack 'em 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Synchronize cached writes to persistent storage.

That's it. That's the whole personality. No cap — the description in the original is literally the same sentence as the NAME line, and honestly? Respect. She said "my job is my whole identity" and she meant it 🔥

---

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• -f, --file-system — syncs up just the file systems that contain the files you named. Cute and targeted 🎯 (Linux and Windows only, so don't come for her on macOS)
• -d, --data — syncs only your file data, no unneeded metadata. She's like "we don't need the extra baggage, babe" 🙈 (Linux only)
• -h, --help — prints the help. Your emergency "wait what does this do again" button 🧚
• -V, --version — prints the version. Because you gotta know which icon you're dealing with 👑
• [files] — the files. The actual vibes you're syncing. Listed in brackets in the original, which lowkey means "optional-ish", but she's literally showing them in the synopsis too so like… bring your files, bestie 🍓

---

⭐ VERSION ⭐

v(uutils coreutils) 0.12.0

Heads up, bestie: -f is Linux and Windows only, and -d is Linux only. If you're elsewhere and you try them, that's on you, not on me 💀

---

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

Not a thing here, friends — the original goes straight from VERSION to the footer. Short page, main character energy 👑

That's the whole page, and honestly she ate 💅 Signed, sealed, and dated 2026-09-17 by your girl running v(uutils coreutils) 0.12.0 — now go flush those caches, ily, bye 🦋💜
