Description: # megachonker
        Use `megachonker` for optimizing the backup of large files. 
        
        Installation command  `sudo pip install megachonker`
        
        ## usage
        ```
        usage: megachonker [-h] [-q] in_file out_file
        
        Use megachonker for optimizing the backup of large files. megachonker dissects
        in_file into 1MB chunks and hashes each chunk. Each hash is then compared to a
        hash for the respective chunk in out_file. The chunk gets copied into out_file
        if hashes differ. A file <out_file>.hashes will be stored alongside out_file.
        megachonker copies all file attributes of in_file to out_file. If in_file and
        out_file have identical modification times then megachonker does nothing.
        
        positional arguments:
          in_file      This is the file to be chunked, hashed and copied
          out_file     This is the backed up version of the file
        
        optional arguments:
          -h, --help   show this help message and exit
          -q, --quiet  Do not show any output.
        
        ```
