Feature Request: Find dupes only across directories
Would it be possible to add an option that makes fdupes only search across the directories given on the command line and not within them?
This would make it possible to give fdupes two directories which both have duplicates within them but ask it to only find the duplicates across them - the files in A that are also in B.
You can pass two folders and without the ''recurse'' flag you seem to get the intended results?
The request as written is identical to requests I've seen for a "source" directory that no action is taken within but in which matches are checked against. It's not the same as no recursion.
I am also interested in this feature.
