NAME

       bup-drecurse - recursively list files in your filesystem

SYNOPSIS

       bup drecurse [-x] [-q] [—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.

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

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

EXAMPLE

             bup drecurse -x /
