Simple command-line tool to see if directories contain identical files
differ <left> <right>
The tool will recursively iterate through both the left and the right directories, comparing the contents of files in each directory. It writes to the console a status for each file.
- Added - The file is present only in right.
- Deleted - The file is present only in left.
- Identical - The file is present in both left and right and the contents have not changed.
- Modified - The file is present in both left and right and the contents have changed.
The tool compares filenames using a case-insensitive comparer. File renames are not tracked. If a file is renamed from a.txt to b.txt between the two directories, this will be reported as an addition (for b.txt) and a deletion (for a.txt).
