The early public tags start at 0.1.0 in June 2020, and later releases kept the same package identity while expanding the duplicate-finding and deduplication workflow. The project was written in Rust with explicit attention to modern storage behavior: parallel directory scanning, device-aware access strategy, path-prefix compression for very large file sets, page-cache-friendly scanning on Linux, multiple hash choices, and optional persistent hash caching. ### Historique d'adoption The upstream README documents official installation through the Snap Store, Homebrew on macOS and Linux, release artifacts attached to GitHub releases, and cargo install. It also points to third-party Arch Linux, Alpine Linux, and NixOS packages, which fits fclones into the package-manager ecosystem around Rust CLI replacements for older Unix utilities. The supplied package metadata shows fclones present across Homebrew, MacPorts, Nix, Arch, Alpine, Scoop, and openSUSE-style packaging, reflecting adoption beyond a single operating system even though the README says it works best on Linux. ### Modes d'utilisation The normal workflow is deliberately two-stage: run `fclones group` to produce a report, inspect or edit that report, then pipe it into `fclones remove`, `fclones move`, `fclones link`, or `fclones dedupe`. The README emphasizes `--dry-run`, JSON/CSV output, fdupes-compatible output, and integration with Unix tools such as `find`. Package users tend to care about fclones when scanning very large photo, media, backup, or build trees where naive duplicate finders are too slow or too memory-hungry. Its ability to replace duplicates with hard links, symbolic links, or filesystem reflinks makes it useful both for cleanup and for storage deduplication experiments. ### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent fclones represents the Rust-era file-management CLI pattern: a familiar Unix problem, packaged widely, with machine-readable output and careful performance notes instead of a small single-purpose C utility. For package maintainers, it is notable because performance depends on platform behavior. Linux gets the fullest optimization set, while Windows lacks reflink support and non-Linux systems miss some low-level storage-ordering and page-cache optimizations. ### Chronologie - 2020: Public repository created and early 0.1.x tags published. - 2021: README examples show the 0.12-era workflow of grouping first, then linking or removing duplicates. - 2025: Version 0.35.0 tag published. ### Related projects - The README names fclones-gui as the desktop frontend for the same duplicate-file-finding project. - The output format can be made compatible with fdupes, placing fclones in the same family as classic duplicate-file finders while adding Rust implementation and modern storage optimizations. ### Sources - - - - - ## Notes de sécurité narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Risque Geiger:** vert / faible - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Autres enregistrements de gestionnaires de paquets - Nix - fclones: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/fc/fclones/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - apk - fclones - 0.35.0-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: fclones from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Efficient duplicate file finder | https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones - apk - fclones-bash-completion - 0.35.0-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: fclones-bash-completion from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Bash completions for fclones | https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones - apk - fclones-fish-completion - 0.35.0-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: fclones-fish-completion from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Fish completions for fclones | https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones - apk - fclones-zsh-completion - 0.35.0-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: fclones-zsh-completion from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Zsh completions for fclones | https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones - pacman - fclones - 0.35.0-2: normalized package name match | Arch Linux sync databases: fclones from https://geo.mirror.pkgbuild.com/extra/os/x86_64/extra.db.tar.gz | Efficient Duplicate File Finder | https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones - zypper - fclones - 0.35.0-2.4: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: fclones from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | Finds duplicate, unique, under- or over-replicated files | https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones - zypper - fclones-bash-completion - 0.35.0-2.4: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: fclones-bash-completion from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | Bash Completion for fclones | https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones - zypper - fclones-fish-completion - 0.35.0-2.4: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: fclones-fish-completion from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | Fish Completion for fclones | https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones - zypper - fclones-zsh-completion - 0.35.0-2.4: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: fclones-zsh-completion from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | ZSH Completion for fclones | https://github.com/pkolaczk/fclones - MacPorts - fclones: normalized package name match | MacPorts ports tree: sysutils/fclones/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - Scoop - extras/fclones: normalized package name match | Scoop official bucket manifest trees: bucket/fclones.json from https://api.github.com/repos/ScoopInstaller/Extras/git/trees/master?recursive=1 ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
