It's shareware, not freeware, but Total Commander from ghisler.com has a tree-
comparison tool that is very powerful. It's under "Commands" -> "Synchronize
Directories" and you can compare by binary content as well as by filename and
time-date stamp. I use it often.
Googling "dirsync" turns up another shareware tool that you can 'legally' use
free for 30 days:
Download DirSync Directory Synchronizer - ArcherSoft
The program is full featured shareware version. You can freely
download and install it for evaluation during a trial period of 30
days without any cost or obligation. This method allows you to try
our products before you purchase them. Payment is required if you
have found the software to be useful or if you wish to continue using
it beyond the trial period. ...
