Ok your code worked nine but I have to run multiple times (unknown) if
the files have 3 copies or more.
Yes. I imagined you only had two copies.
I have an idea, why don't I move the unique files like
Good idea if there are multiple copies of some images.
md5sum * | sort | awk {'print $2 " " $1'} | uniq -df 1| awk {'print $1'}
this will print only unique file names. I tired this but no help.
Leave out the 'd' flag on uniq. And if all your files are jpgs, add
a filter to md5sum or it'll try and process the 'duplicates' directory
we created earlier.
awk {'print $1'} is the same as cut -f 1 d ' ', but I think cut's faster
(it should be lighter than awk)
mkdir unique
md5sum *.jpg | sort | awk {'print $2 " " $1'} | uniq -f 1 | \
cut -f1 -d ' '
Then wrap that in the for command, because:
get error in mv command
Yes, cos you're trying to run:
mv duplicates file1 file2 file3
whilst mv is 'mv file1 file2 file3 <destination>', so you're the wrong
way round. You may be able to persuade xargs to do something different,
but I don't know it that well.
We're well offtopic for ImageMagick now, so I suggest that you reply
just to me from now on. (any IM readers wanting to know how the exiting
tale concludes, email me...)
