  • Best way to find duplicates?
    Rdfind is very good. It lets you do a variety of things when you find a duplicate: symlink to it, delete it etc. It's efficient in the way it looks for duplicates. Source: over 1 year ago
  • How can I list all of the non-overlapping files between two directory trees?

    I generally use rdfind for this purpose on Linux, when I think/know there are probably some duplicates that I could hardlink together without negative effects. Source: almost 3 years ago
