FINDDUP(1) Perl FINDDUP(1) NAME
finddup - Find identical files and do something with them SYNOPSIS
Usage: finddup [options...] --man the manpage -h, --help a short help --version the version (CVS) of the program -n, --noaction do just nothing, just print out (implies -v) -v, --verbose just what the name says -q, --quiet be quiet -l, --link link the identical files together -o, --oldresult Use the old output of this script -i, --ignore-perms Don't check that file owner and permissions match -d, --dir Define the dir to check (you may specify more than one) DESCRIPTION
finddup search the working directory and all files below on the same partition for duplicate files. finddup can optional hardlink such files to save space. Files size 0 will not be reported or hardlinked as this might give problemes later. This is a complete rewrite of the finddup in perl to handle several issues: - Allow spaces and other characters in filenames - be faster - include nodup in same script - Handle files that already have other hardlinks in the same tree - Several improvements If started as nodup or nodup.pl the script will act like started with options --link and --oldresult COPYRIGHT
