dircomm 1.1

After demonstrating its general usefulness, dircomm is now available to the general public.

dircomm is a utility for finding duplicate files in one or more directories. It uses the SHA1 of the file contents to determine if two files are identical. The default output groups the paths to identical files (tab-separated) on the same line. Any number of paths can be specified; if no paths are provided, the current directory (.) is assumed.


Usage: dircomm [-adhlLv?] [-f fs] [PATH]...
Find duplicate files in one or more directories.
Options:
    -a, --all
    -d, --directory                  Do not descend directories
    -f, --field-separator fs         Set field separator
    -h, --human-readable             Display human-readable report
    -l, --long                       Long listing format
    -L, --dereference                Follow symbolic links
    -v, --version                    Show version info
