Usage: rdfind [options] FILE ... Finds duplicate files recursively in the given FILEs (directories), and takes appropriate action (by default, nothing). Directories listed first are ranked higher, meaning that if a file is found on several places, the file found in the directory first encountered on the command line is kept, and the others are considered duplicate. options are (default choice within parentheses) Searching options: -ignoreempty (true)| false ignore empty files (true implies -minsize 1, false implies -minsize 0) -minsize N (N=1) ignores files with size less than N bytes -maxsize N (N=0) ignores files with size N bytes and larger (use 0 to disable this check). -followsymlinks true |(false) follow symlinks -removeidentinode (true)| false ignore files with nonunique device and inode Processing options: -firstbytessize N sets the size in bytes when comparing the beginning of files, prior to full checksumming. default is 64 byte. Use 0 to disable the stage. -lastbytessize N sets the size in bytes when comparing the end of files, prior to full checksumming. default is 64 byte. Use 0 to disable the stage. -checksum none | md5 |(sha1)| sha256 | sha512 | xxh128 checksum type xxh128 is very fast, but is noncryptographic. -buffersize N chunksize in bytes when calculating the checksum. The default is 1 MiB, can be up to 128 MiB. -deterministic (true)| false makes results independent of order from listing the filesystem Action options: -makeresultsfile (true)| false makes a results file -makesymlinks true |(false) replace duplicate files with symbolic links -makehardlinks true |(false) replace duplicate files with hard links -deleteduplicates true |(false) delete duplicate files Default is 0. Only a few values are supported; 0, 1-5, 10, 25, 50, 100 -dryrun|-n true |(false) print to stdout instead of changing anything General options: -outputname NAME sets the results file name to NAME, default is results.txt -sleep Xms sleep for X milliseconds between file reads. -progress true |(false) output progress information -h|-help|--help show this help and exit -v|--version display version number and exit If properly installed, a man page should be available as man rdfind. rdfind is written by Paul Dreik 2006 onwards.
