Yes, we had util-linux before (and many thanks to Adrian Bunk and Andries E. Brouwer), but I believe that with git and close collaboration between Linux distributions and Linux kernel community it better now :-)
- ~11000 commits
- ~460 unique contributors
- ~630 regression tests
- ~100 utils, 5 shared libs with public API
- ~16 major releases (from v2.13 to v2.29)
- ~26 translated languages
- ~10000 e-mails on mailing list
- ported to GNU Hurd, FreeBSD and XOS
- used by all mainstream Linux distros (as well as by Systemd haters ;-)
- modern autotools based build system
- merges from another projects
- libblkid, libuuid and fsck from e2fsprogs
