comment How can I compare two directories to compare missing files, when the directories don't have the same structure?
file names are not necessarily unique, and we need to know when a file changes (so the hash would change too).

comment How can I recursively change the case of files and folders under bash
At least on my computer, find returns the folders before the files, so won't this mean that after the folder has been renamed the filenames following it will be wrong?

all this does is keep repeating the command into less, which means that you need to keep scrolling to see the latest output.
