Hi Eriberto,

I have a good test example attached to this email.

It has two folders with a file 'test'. The files differ only in 1 character. The sizes are exactly the same.

1/test
2/test

If you run:

jdupes -ru 1 2

You get:

Scanning: 2 files, 2 items (in 3 specified)
No unique files found.

If you put them in a parent folder, let's say '3', and run:

jdupes -ru 3

you get;

Scanning: 2 files, 3 items (in 2 specified)
No unique files found.

I have not found any problems with finding duplicates, only finding uniques.


Just found another problem. Wanted to see what --print-summarize might say. But I get this:

jdupes --print-summarize -ru 1 2

Only one of --summarize, --print-summarize, --delete, --link-hard,
--link-soft, --json, --error-on-dupe, or --dedupe may be used

--print-summarize does work for finding duplicates, but not uniques. I think the warning should be:

Only one of --summarize, --print-summarize, --delete, --link-hard,
--link-soft, --json, --error-on-dupe, --print-unique, or --dedupe may be used

Best,
Bob
