I had the same problem and wrote "catchup"
see

A few people have told me that the Doco needs examples, but I haven't
got motivated to include any - yet. (it works for me and I am having
fun with other things at the moment).
However, if you, or anyone, shows interest, that will probably
motivate me to add examples, and fix any other problems that you find
confusing.
I use it regularly, and as long as I don't leave root-owned files in
my home directory, it works great.
The name "catchup" comes because it works like two friends who have
been separate for a while, having a chat. They basically tell each
other "what's new" - they catch-up with each other.
