`cargo install legdur --force` should get you there on a system that has Rust installed already.
## Try it out without installation
If you have a nix-flakes enabled system:
`nix run git+https://git.cyplo.dev/cyplo/legdur.git`
## Usage
`legdur path/to/a/directory/`

## How it works
* it will compute a hash of each file present in the directory structure (it works recursively).
* if previously computed `legdur.db` exists it will compare the current state of the world to the one represented by `legdur.db` and output any differences. Only files that changed or got deleted get printed out, additions are not.
* if previously computed `legdur.db` exists it will compare the current state of the world to the one represented by `legdur.db` and output any differences. Only files that changed or got deleted get printed out, additions or file moves anywhere within the directory are not.
* it will move the current `legdur.db` to `legdur.old` and write the new state of the world to a new `legdur.db`
