Add parse_uid() and parse_gid() helper functions that support both numeric IDs and name lookups. Update the d/D directory creation handlers to use these new functions. This allows config files to specify ownership using numeric UIDs and GIDs instead of only usernames and group names, matching systemd-tmpfiles behavior.
Finit is a fast, simple alternative to SysV init and systemd, designed for small and embedded Linux systems. It can also run on desktop and server systems, like finix.

- 🛠️ Buildroot embedded Linux,
- 📦 Debian GNU/Linux,
- ⛰️ Alpine Linux, and
- 🌌 Void Linux
Note
Finit can run on various Linux distributions, but the bundled install scripts are examples only. They have been tested on amd64 (x86_64) systems with standard configurations.
For embedded systems, see these Buildroot-based examples: myLinux, Infix, or br2-finit-demo.
