fdupes: Identify or Delete Duplicate Files

jdupes Czkawka
  1. 1
    NOTE: jdupes has been discontinued.
    Greatly improved fork of the fdupes duplicate scanner, including ports to Windows and Mac OS X.
    200 lines of Nim [1] seems to run about 9X faster than the 8000 lines of C in fdupes on a little test dir I have. If you need C, I think jdupes [2] is faster as @TacticalCoder points out a couple of times here. In my testing, `dups` is usually faster than `jdupes`, though.

  2. Multi functional app to find duplicates, empty folders, similar images etc.
    I've used Czkawka (<a href="https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka">https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka</a>) because it does Lanczos-based image duplicate detection, which makes it more practical for me.
