fpart 0.9.2-1build1 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu bionic
Fpart is a tool that helps you sort file trees and pack them into bags (called
"partitions"). It is developed in C and available under the BSD license.
.
It splits a list of directories and file trees into a certain number of
partitions, trying to produce partitions with the same size and number of
files.
It can also produce partitions with a given number of files or a limited size.
Once generated, partitions are either printed as file lists to stdout
(default) or to files. Those lists can then be used by third party programs.
.
Fpart also includes a live mode, which allows it to crawl very large
filesystems and produce partitions in live. Hooks are available to act on
those partitions (e.g. immediatly start a transfer using rsync(1)) without
having to wait for the filesystem traversal job to be finished. Used this way,
fpart can be seen as a powerful data migration tool.
