It sounds like you might be interested in Unison: http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/unison/ Another option would be to rsync with a hard-link copy. This way you'd get what appear to be two separate filesystem trees, but only take up the space of the original + differences, and a list of the differences (by running rsync with -v). You could select which files to keep at that point and then erase the "duplicate" tree. This is discussed in the context of incremental backups at: http://www.mikerubel.org/computers/rsync_snapshots/ If you go this route, be sure to use J.W.'s new --link-dest option as it keeps the permissions straight.
