TreeHash

TreeHash is a utility to create and verify hashes for a file-tree.
It operates on a file containing the file-paths (recursive) relative to a given directory and their hashes.

The sources consist of the library (which manages the hashes) and a CLI frontend.

Usage

To see all options run TreeHash-CLI --help

Example Workflow:

cd someDirToHash
# create hashes of all files (and print which files were processed)
TreeHash-CLI -r . -f ./hashes.json -l a -m update

# ... change and add some files ...

# update hashes
TreeHash-CLI -r . -f ./hashes.json -l a -m update
# or 1. update known files which were modified, 2. hash unknown files
TreeHash-CLI -r . -f ./hashes.json -l a -m update_mod
TreeHash-CLI -r . -f ./hashes.json -l a -m update_new

# ... delete some files ...

# check what was deleted
TreeHash-CLI -r . -f ./hashes.json --check-removed
# remove deleted files from hashes
TreeHash-CLI -r . -f ./hashes.json -c

To exclude files and directories from hashing use -e <relative path> (can be used multiple times).
To hash only specific files and directories use -i <relative path> (can be used multiple times).
(-i and -e can be combined; e.g. to exclude a sub-dir in an include.)
