Show information about an index

NAME

desync-info - Show information about an index

SYNOPSIS

desync info <index> [flags]

DESCRIPTION

Displays information about the provided index, such as the number of chunks and the total size of unique chunks that are not available in the seed. If a store is provided, it'll also show how many of the chunks are present in the store. By providing a chunks info file, generated by 'inspect-chunks', additional information will be shown, like the size of compressed chunks not in the seed nor cache. If one or more seed indexes are provided, the number of chunks available in the seeds are also shown. Use '-' to read the index from STDIN.
