Build a collection of unique root directories

I have recently purchased around 125 Wordpress sites. They're all based around the Avada theme but have a customised child theme. FYI (from what I've learned) child themes are basically a directory into which override files are placed to change the behaviour of a parent theme. For example if I wanted to change an aspect of the header, I'd copy the header.php from the parent theme into the child theme folder, then make my modifications.

What I basically have now though is 125 customised child themes that are similar but not the same and have been modified individually over many many years. I suspect that many of the sites have the exact same child theme (in that the folder's contents - recursively) are exactly the same.

What I'd like to do is compile a set of child theme folders where the set only contains the folders that are different in content from any others. Then I can basically look through these and get an idea of the evolution of the theme over time.

It's certainly possible, but I wondered if it's a problem that's already been solved before?

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
