Hello!

I have a project with extremely big directories. It would be a tremendous improvement if wrench would be able to compare files from source and target directory using timestamp and/or filesize.

Thanks!

Being honest wrench was not updated for 2 years, because the project is looking for maintainer.

If I were you, I would implement this routine myself or find another solution.

^this pretty much. Was built as a stop gap for very early versions if Node, better libraries exist now. I only keep it available because for some reason an unholy amount of projects still list it as a dependency.

I see, @ryanmcgrath , you should add a deprecation notice to the README and use https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/deprecate to notify the users during module installation then, I think. Maybe even add a link to the most suitable alternative.

Pull request it and I will? I'll likely forget due to a ridiculously packed schedule these days, but happy to push it up if so. Alternatively, if anyone wants to take over ownership of the library I'm happy to help facilitate this. I put out a call on Twitter some time ago seeing if anyone was interested but sadly found no takers.

Yeah, I think all professional developers are pretty busy these days. A lot of work needs to be done )
