Description
It is great to get the file check-sum and file path in the ddup output.
Could file size and other attributes (atime) be included in output?
This is more of a nice to have. Of course it can be looked up separately, but output with size and date can hep to sort / find the best duplicates to remove faster.
Thanks,

Research direction
Start at the ddup output entry point and trace how each duplicate's checksum and path are formatted. Identify the relevant output tests, then add file size and available date or attribute information; done means ddup reports these values consistently and the tests cover the new output.
