jdupes: Search multiple directories and follow subdirectores under directory2, not directory1.
$ jdupes ${directory1} --recurse: ${directory2}
try on your machine
This command uses the jdupes command-line tool to find and list duplicate files in a specific directory. Let's break down the command:
jdupes: This is the command-line tool that will be executed.${directory1}: This is a placeholder for the first directory path that you need to specify. Replace${directory1}with the actual path of the directory you want to search for duplicates.--recurse: This is an option in jdupes that specifies that the search should be recursive, i.e., it will search for duplicates not only in the specified directory but also in all subdirectories.: ${directory2}: This is another placeholder for the second directory path that you need to specify. Replace${directory2}with the actual path of the second directory you want to compare against the first directory. jdupes will then find duplicates in the first directory that also exist in the second directory.
In summary, this command will search for duplicate files in ${directory1} and its subdirectories and compare them against ${directory2}. It will output a list of duplicates found.
