Shot Sentinel v1.0 Final

🛡️ Shot Sentinel v1.0 Final (Linux)

First stable release of Shot Sentinel for Linux.

Shot Sentinel is a simple utility designed to prevent photos and videos from being accidentally overwritten due to duplicate camera filenames such as:

The application automatically renames media files using metadata to create unique filenames and provides an option to restore the original names.

✨ Features (v1.0 Final New & Updated)

• 🐧 Native Linux Support: Ported application to Linux (tested on Mint, Ubuntu, and Debian). Added bash wrappers, GIO-based native Trash integration, and automated installer scripts for Nemo, Nautilus, and Caja file managers.
• 📁 Native Folder Picker: Added a native folder selection dialog to browse for custom destination paths.
• 📊 Offline HTML Report: Complete refactor to a professional, offline-capable HTML report (no external CDN dependencies).
• 📈 CSS Flexbox Charts: Implemented pure CSS charting for File Type Distribution and Camera Usage statistics.
• 🏆 Protection Rank System: Implemented gamified progress tracking with ASCII progress bars via CLI and HTML report.
• 👯 Standalone Duplicate Checker: A dedicated tool to find and manage duplicate files using a fast, memory-efficient two-pass algorithm (Size & MD5 hash).
• 🔄 Idempotent Media Organizer: Re-running safely skips already organized files and prevents nested folder creation.
• 🛡️ Recursive Protection System: Engineered a .shotsentinel hidden metadata marker to detect and warn users if they attempt to organize a folder that is already a child of a previously organized destination.
