Issue #5 proposes a `--noninteractive` option which causes `--delete` to fall back to keeping all entries if no `--prefer` option matches. There should also be some similar mechanism for falling...
Once issues #5 and #7 are resolved, I'll want to add a command line switch with a name like `--autolink` or `--link-if` which is used similarly to `--prefer`. The purpose...
1. It's a waste of time to read the same inode once for each hardlink associated with it and unnecessarily slows things down if the user re-runs fastdupes later. 2....
Once issue #6 has been resolved, it should be used to add a `link` command to the `--delete` prompt which is similar to the existing `all` command but, instead, hardlinks...
Various ideas for the `--delete` prompt require it to behave more like a command line which fills a default command if only given numeric arguments. As such, it will need...
First and most importantly, I'll want to investigate [rmlint](https://github.com/sahib/rmlint) since a brief examination of the README suggests that it's doing the same kinds of optimizations I'm doing but has had...
Unlike the other steps, I've done practically nothing to optimize the initial recursive tree traversal phase. I'll want to do some cost-benefit research on the following as well as identifying...
The more automation there is for deleting files, the more likely it is that empty folders will get left lying around. I'll want to also have some kind of support...
Once I've implemented certain other optimizations which involve caching file metadata between passes, I'll want to make sure I haven't introduced any unnecessary memory bloat in the process. ...of course,...
Once issue #19 (unit test suite) is done, I'll want to track down as many Google-visible places as possible where people recommend duplicate-finding tools and add a mention for fastdupes....
