Does it only find duplicate files or will it also find duplicate directory hierarchies? Example: /some/location/one/January/Photos /some/location/two/January

Does it only find duplicate files or will it also find duplicate directory hierarchies? Example: /some/location/one/January/Photos /some/location/two/January/Photos I need a tool that would return a match on January directory. It would be great to be able to filter things. So for example, if I have backups of my dev folder, I want to filter out all the virtual envs (venv below): /home/HumblyTossed/dev/venv/bin /home/HumblyTossed/backups/dev/venv/bin

Sounds like you're looking for `find` or `fd` https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/find.1.html https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/find.1.html (-mindepth -maxdepth can also be added to make it stricter) find some/location -type d -wholename '*/January/Photos' https://github.com/sharkdp/fd https://github.com/sharkdp/fd fd -p '*/January/Photos' some/location
