Hashfile extends the scope of commandline arguments #217

When you use a hashfile for storing data more than once, then duperemove checks dupes which it shouldn't.

E.g. you call duperemove first with files a, b and c and abort after the hashing phase.

Then later you call duperemove with files d, e, then after the hashing phase it will also search for dupes e.g. between file a and b instead of only processing d and e.

It seems it processes all entries in the hash file and not only the ones relevant for current run.

duperemove version 0.11.1

Can you provide the exact command line you are running ?

Sorry. I don't use that tool anymore at all.
