Description

Ion is a modern system shell that features a simple, yet powerful, syntax. It is written entirely in Rust, which greatly increases the overall quality and security of the shell, eliminating the possibilities of a ShellShock-like vulnerability, and making development easier. It also offers a level of performance that exceeds that of Dash, when taking advantage of Ion's features. While it is developed alongside, and primarily for, RedoxOS, it is a fully capable on other *nix platforms.

In the other systems

The newest version among them is 1.0.5.1509, as upstream numbers it.

Restore ports tree accidentally deleted by Rails PR #2213 (#2232)

Restore the 63,146 unrelated files accidentally deleted when malformed Rails PR #2213 was merged. Retain the intended databases/rubygem-activemodel81 update to 8.1.4.1. Verified the repaired tree has all 63,148 tracked files. Compared with master before #2213 (141a9523ba), only databases/rubygem-activemodel81/Makefile and distinfo differ. The update itself was already built, packaged and hash-verified. The cause was preparing sparse worktrees with an empty index. The remaining Rails branches are receiving corrective commits, with explicit final-tree and per-port diff validation before push. This recovery changes no port semantics beyond the intended ActiveModel update. Signed-off-by: Lucas Holt <[email protected]>

databases/rubygem-activemodel81: update to 8.1.4.1 for security fixes (#2213)

Update databases/rubygem-activemodel81 to 8.1.4.1. Part of the coordinated Rails security update addressing the 21 advisories published November 4, 2026. Preserve this port's existing Rails release series; update all version-linked component ports together. Validation on MidnightBSD 4.0.9 amd64, Ruby 3.3.11: official release SHA256 matches the supplied announcement; MIT license unchanged; makesum, patch, build, fake including gem dependency QA, and package passed. Portlint: zero fatal errors (existing advisories only). Runtime dependency gems were isolated under /tmp; NO_DEPENDS=yes prevented installing host packages, so mport dependency installation/closure itself was not tested. Targeted security validation for the Rails 8.1 release: twelve …
