# mostfiles

List directories and number of files inside to easily find directories with most files.

Give it path (default is `.`) and few options

`-d`/`--dir` - each subdirectory counted as 1 file too

`-a`/`--all` - do not ignore hidden files/directories 

`-r`/`--recursive` - recursive mode. Mostfiles ALWAYS walks subdirectories recursively, but `-r` flag makes it to count files in nested directories.

`-m`/`--min` - threshold value. Do not print directories which has less then `min` files.

Examples:

~~~shell

$ mostfiles

3 .

1 mostfiles/__pycache__

1 mostfiles

~~~

3 files in current directory, all hidden files/directories (like .gitignore, .git ) are ignored. Only LICENSE, pyproject.toml and README.md are counted. Subdirectory "mostfiles" not counted because `-d` not given.

~~~

$ mostfiles -r

5 .

2 mostfiles

1 mostfiles/__pycache__

~~~

Now `.` has 5 files. 3 in current directory, but also 2 in subdirectories.

~~~

$ mostfiles -ar | head -n 3

32 .

26 .git

13 .git/hooks

~~~

Now, count hidden files/directories (such as .git, .gitignore)
