 # Extensions

\ No newline at end of file
+The goal of this project is to be a drop-in replacement for GNU findutils, so by
+default the tools behave exactly like the originals. A few opt-in extras go
+beyond what GNU offers; they are all off unless you ask for them, and none of
+them change the default output.
+
+The sections below are the only ones. Nothing else here is an addition to GNU:
+every other predicate, option, `-printf` directive and environment variable
+either matches GNU or is still missing. In particular `LOCATE_PATH`,
+`FINDOPTIONS`, `PRUNEPATHS`, `PRUNEFS`, `NETPATHS`, `LOCALUSER` and `NETUSER`
+are standard findutils variables, not extensions. Where we differ from GNU it is
+a gap rather than an extra — see [GNU test coverage](test_coverage.md).
+
+## `-sorted`: deterministic traversal order
+
+GNU `find` returns entries in whatever order the filesystem hands them back, so
+two runs over the same tree can print the same lines in a different order. The
+`-sorted` predicate makes `find` sort each directory's entries by name before
+descending:
+
+```console
+$ find /srv/data -type f -printf '%f\n'
+yankee
+bravo
+mike
+alpha
+zeta
+
+$ find /srv/data -sorted -type f -printf '%f\n'
+alpha
+bravo
+mike
+yankee
+zeta
+```
+
+It is a global flag rather than a test: it always matches, and it affects the
+whole traversal no matter where it appears in the expression. Sorting requires
+reading each directory in full before descending into it, so it costs memory and
+latency on very large directories — that is why it is opt-in rather than the
+default.
+
+This is most useful when you want reproducible output: comparing two trees,
+generating a manifest, or writing a test whose expected output is a fixed list
+of lines.
