Find duplicate directories with Duplicate Directory Hunter
Duplicate Directory Hunter is a python script I wrote to help find duplicate directories quickly. While I’ve always been obsessive about backups, I’ve been less than perfect about maintaining their organization, or doing them the right way. Often times, I would just copy directory trees into a archive folder, or rename the copied folder whatever.old.
At one point, I estimated I had over 200 gigs of redundant backups. Having extra backups like this certainly hinders my efforts at offsite backup. While I can compare directory trees and files with diff, this takes a long time per directory, and I have to give it a pair of roots to compare. What if I don’t know which directories to compare?
