Command-line tool written in Go to organise all media files in a directory recursively by date, detecting duplicates.

• Organizes media (images and videos) by year and month folders.
• Extracts metadata like EXIF and XMP into separated JSON files.
• Detects duplicates (by comparing file checksum) and skips moving/copying them.
• Normalizes the file names.
• Fixes file creation time, by using the one in the metadata if available.

• go >= v1.19
• exiftool >= v12
• ffmpeg
