Operations on a list (bunch) of given unix-style paths

Usage: dir-bunch <COMMAND>

Commands:
  merge           Logically merges a bunch of path-names to a set of unique and completely distinct locations - covering the same filesystem-content as the input-bunch. This means, it semantically merges these paths so that all folders and files are elided, which are already represented by an existing entry of one of its parent folders. This command works purely on the given input data (it does not scan the filesystem)
  
  find-uncovered  Finds existing EXTRA dirs/files in the filesystem, which are not covered by the given dir-bunch. All given dirs must exist at the filesystem location, otherwise the program ends with an error. So this command implicitly also checks the existence of all given dirs in the filesystem. Output is a minimal high-level view – each folder represents its complete subtree. Use argument `--mounted-at` to specify a different filesystem mountpoint (default: `/`) (typical Use-Case: backup post-check)
  
  help            Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)
