Freedup eliminates duplicate files by linking them, and
thus reduces the amount of used disk space within
one or more file systems. By default, hardlinks
are used on a single device, symbolic links when
the devices differ. A set of options allows you to modify
the methods of file comparison, the hash functions,
the linking behavior, and the reporting style. You
may use batch or interactive mode. Freedup usually only considers identical files, but when comparing
audio or graphics files, you may elect to ignore the tags.

Changes:
In this release minor bugfixes concerning compilation under cygwin (and other environments) are implemented. The new feature of ignoring audio and graphics tags now also supports ignoring the MP4 tags of files that have a suffix "mov", which usually means the first tag of type "moov". There are no changes to the support of MP2, MP3, Ogg, MPC, JPEG, or other formats.
