# Media Importer Project This repository contains the development and testing resources for the `media-importer.sh` script, which is the main product of this project. ## Project Structure - `media-importer.sh`: The primary script under development and testing. - `INCIDENTS.md`: Postmortems for data-loss or near-data-loss incidents and the regression rules derived from them. - `RPI/`: Raspberry Pi integration prototype. This area is currently frozen because Raspberry Pi 3B+ hardware with 1 GB RAM has not provided reliable validation capacity and may also be affected by hardware defects. - `samples/code/autonas-media-importer.sh`: The original script that serves as inspiration for this project. - `samples/`: Contains code samples, example files, and other resources used for development and testing. **Note:** Scripts and functions are not imported from this directory; it is strictly for reference and testing purposes. ## Version Control Version control is implemented for all files except the `samples/` directory. The `samples/` directory is excluded from version control to avoid tracking test resources and sample files. To exclude the `samples/` directory, the following entry should be added to the `.gitignore` file: ```gitignore samples/ ``` ## Contribution Guidelines - All development should focus on `media-importer.sh`. - Do not import or source scripts/functions from the `samples/` directory. - Use resources in `samples/` only for testing and development reference. - Destination conflicts must never be delegated to copy/move tools. In unattended runs the importer appends numeric suffixes (`_1`, `_2`, ...); in interactive runs it asks the user and supports applying the choice to all similar conflicts. ## License Specify your license here. --- For details on recent changes, including the removal of fallback date handling, see [CHANGELOG.md](./CHANGELOG.md). This file is intended for GitHub Copilot and contributors to understand the project structure and guidelines.
