SNAPSHOT-DIR(1C)

NAME
snapshot-dir - create a snapshot database of a directory tree

SYNOPSIS
snapshot-dir [-vN] directory [directory...] [:output=database-name]

DESCRIPTION
snapshot-dir Finds all files in the directory, recursively, and writes to the [database-name] or to standard output a description of each file including name, file modes, sizes, dates, and an MD5 checksum of each REG file, and the contents of each symbolic link. The database can be further processed by other programs that can determine what has changed in a file system. The directory arguments can also be regular file names. The -v argument lets you specify a verbosity level.
