Self hosted, web gui, file duplication scanner
I use rdfind for this.
-
Is there a Mac app that will allow me to recursively go through thousands of folders, calculate the total folder size, then compare against all other folder sizes, and if the size is identical, delete the newer one?
rdfind is available for macOS; I've been using it on linux: https://github.com/pauldreik/rdfind
-
Deduplication on EXT4
You can use rdfind to find all duplicates in your experiments dir and replace files with hardlinks. This way files will occupy disk space only once and all inode references will be to the same disk location.
- How do I show non-duplicate files across 2 drives?
-
Pip and cargo are not the same
I use rdfind to deal with this: https://github.com/pauldreik/rdfind
- Backing Up Data: Tips/Advice for Tons of Unorganized Data and Duplicate Files from Multiple Sources

This has probably happened to all of us at least once
Yeah, I periodically download the full drives and just deduplicate with rdfind hardlinking identical files.

recommends for de-duplication?
I use rdfind on my Linux NAS. https://github.com/pauldreik/rdfind

Deduplication at file level
Install fclones (fdupes modern equivalent)

-
making duplicate files hard links, probably rdfind
I said "fclone" I meant "fclones" (https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones) -- I missed the "s" at the end
-
Use `dano` to find duplicate media files
While we're recommending stuff, fclones: https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones

Oxidise Your Life
fclones: Efficient Duplicate File Finder.
-
Pip and cargo are not the same
Yes, that would be safer when available (although generally files within library dependencies are not modified I think?). It looks like fclones implements this, is faster and is written in Rust https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones (the last is the most important point of course /s).
- Caf a rust program which filters out duplicate files
