sha512sum

all

Calculate SHA512 cryptographic checksums.

Options (1)

-c, --checkboolean

Read a file of SHA512 checksums and filenames and verify all files have matching checksums

Example: sha512sum {{[-c|--check]}} {{path/to/file.sha512}}

Calculate the SHA512 checksum for one or more files

sha512sum path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...

Calculate and save the list of SHA512 checksums to a file

sha512sum path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ... > path/to/file.sha512

Calculate a SHA512 checksum from `stdin`

command | sha512sum

Read a file of SHA512 checksums and filenames and verify all files have matching checksums

sha512sum [-c|--check] path/to/file.sha512

Only show a message for missing files or when verification fails

sha512sum [-c|--check] --quiet path/to/file.sha512

Only show a message when verification fails, ignoring missing files

sha512sum --ignore-missing [-c|--check] --quiet path/to/file.sha512

Check a known SHA512 checksum of a file

echo known_sha512_checksum_of_the_file path/to/file | sha512sum [-c|--check]
