rsync and file organizing (quick pay 5 stars)

Completed Posted 3 years ago Paid on delivery
Completed Paid on delivery

Having issues on over 700gb; there are many folders that are partial and need to get complete (moved loads of files from location to location) - it is running bash (this is a mac os system)

Been thinking about "rsync" to confirm a primary folder is good "2016/pictures" and "/tmp/other-files-etc" if using chksum to verify any file overwritten is identical or renamed if not could ensure that I remove duplicates and have "complete folders" an efficient disk space usage?

Here is what I am thinking:

command:

bash myscript pictures other-files-ec

1. rsync 2016/pictures /tmp/other-files-etc

2. do a chksum to see if the two folders match

3. if they match; delete other-files-etc

4. if they do not match show difference some how

Is there a solid way to handle this; not lose any key files and ensure that no duplicates exist or properly handled and files that have file (1).txt, file (2).txt are dealt with as well.

-------------------------------------------------

Helping me get this working properly will be the delivery and goal.

Please note there is hope we can mutually complete this task; we can leave each other nice comments and 5 stars for each?

Please note project is due in (2) two hours as this projects deadline, as this is needed asap from the time we start.
