bup-drecurse(1)

NAME

bup-drecurse - recursively list files in your filesystem

SYNOPSIS

bup drecurse [-x] [-q] [--profile] <path>

DESCRIPTION

bup drecurse traverses files in the filesystem in a way similar to find(1). In most cases, you should use find(1) instead.

This program is useful mainly for testing the file traversal algorithm used in bup-index(1).

Note that filenames are returned in reverse alphabetical order, as in bup-index(1). This is important because you can't generate the hash of a parent directory until you have generated the hashes of all its children. When listing files in reverse order, the parent directory will come after its children, making this easy.

OPTIONS

-x, --xdev, --one-file-system

don't cross filesystem boundaries.

-q, --quiet

don't print filenames as they are encountered. Useful when testing performance of the traversal algorithms.

--profile

print profiling information upon completion. Useful when testing performance of the traversal algorithms.

EXAMPLE

bup drecurse -x /
