Howdy y'all!

I'm curious about everyone's favorite/most used CLI tool! Please include your favorite as well as your use case if you don't mind. Mine is rsync, which I use to keep my home music storage synced with my music player's SD card.

Runner up is ranger to navigate files. I mainly use this to quickly visually navigate mounted drives that I did not organize myself.

Hope to hear from you all soon, thanks!

The killer features for me are fuzzy command history match for bash (or zsh, or even powershell) and respectively interactive grep. Lots of other examples here: https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/wiki/Examples#searching-file-contents
