sha512sum

Calculate SHA512 cryptographic checksums.

=> More information.

• Calculate the SHA512 checksum for a file:

sha512sum {path/to/file}

• Calculate SHA512 checksums for multiple 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}

• Read a file of SHA512 sums and verify all files have matching checksums:

sha512sum --check {path/to/file.sha512}

• Only show a message for missing files or when verification fails:

sha512sum --check --quiet {path/to/file.sha512}

• Only show a message for files for which verification fails, ignoring missing files:

sha512sum --ignore-missing --check --quiet {path/to/file.sha512}
