jdupes¶

"finds and performs actions upon duplicate files" - man jdupes

jdupes is based on fdupes and is not written in java as the name may lead you to assume.

Examples¶

Recursively find all duplicates in a dir¶

jdupes -r /path/to/dir

Create hard-links of any duplicate files¶

jdupes -r -L /path/

Delete all but one duplicate¶

Although the flags do not indicate this, the following command keeps the first file (see man page for details), and prints a summary of what was kept and what was deleted.

jdupes -r --delete --no-prompt /path/
