[HacktionLab] how to copy directory & file structure & names without actually copying the actual data? [off topic]

[nowisthetime at riseup.net]

hello folks and hope all is going well - the spirit of hacktion is still
with me no joke! just looking for ways to give back the goodness that I
got with the other skills I have (not programming!)

ok so this is what I'm seeking help about:

How to copy directory & file structure & names without actually copying
the actual data? So still showing the names of directories and their files
inside able for anyone to browse but 0 data in the files...

This way I can send over my folder structure and files without the actual
huge data and people can browse my movies, music or workshops and request
the actual data later...

many thanks
