COMPARISON of duplicate file utilities. This is a list of duplicate file management utilities.

Draft List Of Utils

[edit]
  • clink - replaces duplicates with symlinks
  • duff - uses fast O(n log n) comparison
  • dupedit - Compares many files at once without checksumming. Avoids comparing files against themselves when multiple paths point to the same file.
  • dupefinder -
  • duper -
  • dupmerge - runs across most platforms (Win32/64 with Cygwin, *nix, Linux etc.)
  • dupseek - Perl with algorithm optimized to reduce reads
  • epac - Erik's Partial Archive Collator - replaces duplicates with hardlinks
  • fdf - Perl/c based and runs across most platforms (Win32, *nix and probably others). Uses MD5, SHA1 and other checksum algorithms
  • fdupe - a small script written in Perl. Doing its job fast and efficiently.
  • fdupes -
  • findrepe - Java-based command-line tool; can search within zips and jars. (Linux, Mac OS X, *nix, Windows)
  • freedup - POSIX C compliant and runs across platforms (Windows with Cygwin, Linux, AIX, etc.)
  • freedups - shell script
  • fslint - has command line interface and GUI.
  • ftwin -
  • liten - Pure Python deduplication command line tool, and library, using md5 checksums and a novel byte comparison algorithm. (Linux, Mac OS X, *nix, Windows)
  • liten2 - A rewrite of the original Liten, still a command line tool but with a faster interactive mode using SHA-1 checksums (Linux, Mac OS X, *nix)
  • rdfind - One of the few which rank duplicates based on the order of input parameters (directories to scan) in order not to delete in "original/well known" sources (if multiple directories are given). Uses MD5 or SHA1. uses fast O(n log n) comparison
  • rmlint - Fast finder with command line interface and many options to find other lint too (uses MD5)
  • ssdeep - identify almost identical files using Context Triggered Piecewise Hashing
  • ua - Unix/Linux command line tool, designed to work with find (and the like).
