Singlemizer is a simple app for finding & managing duplicate files on your Mac. Singlemizer brings order out of chaos and frees up disk space. Files are compared on the basis of their contents only, not by names or dates or other possibly misleading attributes. This guarantees 100%-correct matching.
* Search in Smart Folders
Singlemizer can scan Smart Folders just like any other folder. You can specify complex scans, such as all types of JPEGs with particular word in their names, created on a specified date and having a given label color.
* Search Locations Priorities
Each location you choose to scan is assigned a priority. Duplicates found in each location are assigned the same priority as the location; when the scan is completed, the file with the highest value is designated as master file, i.e. it’s the original and all the others are copies. Simply put, priorities help to distinguish unwanted duplicates from valuable originals.
* Progressive Results
Unlike other duplicate-finding applications, you don’t need to wait for a scan to finish before being able to manage duplicates. Singlemizer’s report shows all duplicates of a particular file at the same time, allowing you to decide what to do with them, even while Singlemizer continues to search for more duplicates in the background. This can be a great time-saver if you are scanning folders of thousands of large files.
* Not Just a Primitive Removal
Sometimes we have duplicate files for reason. Imagine a situation when one particular file has to be present in couple of places simultaneously like some document or image copied in ~/Documents for keeping and in ~/Sites/MySite for sharing with friends. With Singlemizer you can save disk space occupied by such duplicates via replacing them with links to originals. All variants at your service: aliases, symlinks & even geeky hard links!
