NAME

       bup-drecurse - recursively list files in your filesystem

SYNOPSIS

       bup   drecurse   [-x]   [-q]   [--exclude   path]    [--exclude-from   filename]  [--exclude-rx  pattern]
        [--exclude-rx-from filename] [--profile] <path>

DESCRIPTION

       bup drecurse traverses files in the filesystem in a way similar to find(1).  In most  cases,  you  should
       use find(1) instead.

       This program is useful mainly for testing the file traversal algorithm used in bup-index(1).

       Note  that  filenames  are returned in reverse alphabetical order, as in bup-index(1).  This is important
       because you can’t generate the hash of a parent directory until you have generated the hashes of all  its
       children.  When listing files in reverse order, the parent directory will come after its children, making
       this easy.

OPTIONS

       -x, --xdev, --one-file-system
              don’t cross filesystem boundaries – though as with tar and rsync, the mount points themselves will
              still be reported.

       -q, --quiet
              don’t  print  filenames as they are encountered.  Useful when testing performance of the traversal
              algorithms.

       --exclude=path
              exclude path from the backup (may be repeated).

       --exclude-from=filename
              read –exclude paths from filename, one path per-line (may be repeated).  Ignore  completely  empty
              lines.

       --exclude-rx=pattern
              exclude  any  path  matching  pattern.   See bup-index(1) for details, but note that unlike index,
              drecurse will produce relative paths  if  the  drecurse  target  is  a  relative  path.   (may  be
              repeated).

       --exclude-rx-from=filename
              read  –exclude-rx  patterns  from  filename,  one  pattern  per-line  (may  be  repeated).  Ignore
              completely empty lines.

       --profile
              print profiling information upon completion.  Useful when testing  performance  of  the  traversal
              algorithms.
