Find duplicate files
In a large directory structure it is easy to inadvertently leave unnecessary copies of files around, which can use considerable disk space and create confusion. Create a program which, given a minimum size and a folder/directory, will find all files of at least size bytes with duplicate contents under the directory and output or show the sets of duplicate files in order of decreasing size.
The program may be command-line or graphical, and duplicate content may be determined by direct comparison or by calculating a hash of the data. Specify which filesystems or operating systems your program works with if it has any filesystem- or OS-specific requirements. Identify hard links (filenames referencing the same content) in the output if applicable for the filesystem. For extra points detect when whole directory sub-trees are identical, or optionally remove or link identical files.

Raku
(formerly Perl 6)
This implementation takes a starting directory (defaults to the current directory) and has a few flags to set behaviour: --minsize, minimum file size to look at, defaults to 5 bytes; and --recurse, recurse into the directory structure, default True. It finds files of the same size, calculates hashes to compare, then reports files that hash the same. Uses the very fast but cryptographically poor xxHash library to hash the files.
<lang perl6>use Digest::xxHash;
sub MAIN( $dir = '.', :$minsize = 5, :$recurse = True ) {
my %files;
my @dirs = $dir.IO.absolute.IO;
while @dirs {
my @files = @dirs.pop;
while @files {
for @files.pop.dir -> $path {
%files{ $path.s }.push: $path if $path.f and $path.s >= $minsize;
@dirs.push: $path if $path.d and $path.r and $recurse
}
}
}
for %files.sort( +*.key ).grep( *.value.elems > 1)».kv -> ($size, @list) {
my %dups;
@list.map: { %dups{ xxHash( $_.slurp :bin ) }.push: $_.Str };
for %dups.grep( *.value.elems > 1)».value -> @dups {
say sprintf("%9s : ", scale $size ), @dups.join(', ');
}
}
}
sub scale ($bytes) {
given $bytes {
when $_ < 2**10 { $bytes ~ ' B' }
when $_ < 2**20 { ($bytes / 2**10).round(.1) ~ ' KB' }
when $_ < 2**30 { ($bytes / 2**20).round(.1) ~ ' MB' }
default { ($bytes / 2**30).round(.1) ~ ' GB' }
}
}</lang>

with error checking
This version of the REXX program:
- checks to see if running under the DOS environment
- uses the TEMP folder for storing a temporary file
- verifies that the maxSize is a positive integer
- adjusts the name for a generic file specification
- uses variables for some command names and command options
- shows the number of files examined and also the directory name
