  • fdupes: Identify or Delete Duplicate Files
    13 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 2 Nov 2023
    Writing a program like this is one of the first exercises I give myself when learning a new programming language, because it touches a little bit of everything (reading files, output, CLI, using libraries, hashmaps, functions, loops, conditionals, etc) and isn't too onerous to implement.

    My latest (it's a few years old at this point) is lsdup (rust version) using blake3 for hashing the content: https://github.com/redsaz/lsdup/

    All it does is list the groups of duplicate files, grouped by hash, groups ordered by size. I'll usually pipe the output to a file, then do whatever I want to the list, and run a different script to process the resulting list. It works fine enough.
