v0.4.0: Improved Output Format

🎉 Release v0.4.0: Improved Output Format

✨ New Features

• Enhanced duplicate output format with Status/Location/Title displayed on separate lines
• Improved readability for duplicate file reports
• Better user experience with clearer file information display

🔧 Improvements

• Removed demo script for cleaner project structure
• Updated documentation to match new output format
• Maintained xxHash performance benefits from v0.3.0

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Documentation now fully consistent with actual output format

📊 Example Output

Duplicate Group 1 (Size: 6148 bytes, Hash: c375db64):
    Status: [KEEP]
    Location: /Users/user/Documents/Articles/Pilot waves
    Title: .DS_Store

    Status: [DUP]
    Location: /Users/user/Documents/Articles/Aether  
    Title: .DS_Store

🚀 Performance

• Fast xxHash (XXH3) algorithm for duplicate detection
• Size pre-filtering for optimal performance
• Streaming hash calculation for large files

💾 Installation

Download the binary for your platform and run:

./file-dedup-v0.4.0-macos-arm64 ~/Documents

v0.3.0 - xxHash Performance Upgrade

🚀 Performance Improvement - xxHash Migration

What's New

• ⚡ Significantly faster duplicate detection using xxHash (XXH3) instead of SHA-256
• 🔧 Improved performance for large file scans while maintaining accuracy
• 📦 Updated dependencies for better compatibility

Breaking Changes

• Hash output format changed from 256-bit to 64-bit (affects hash display only)
• Internal hash algorithm changed from SHA-256 to xxHash (XXH3)

Features

• ✅ Safe duplicate detection (read-only operation)
• ✅ Size-based pre-filtering for efficiency
• ✅ Recursive directory scanning
• ✅ Cross-platform compatibility (Windows, macOS, Linux)
• ✅ Clear duplicate group reporting
• ✅ Potential space savings calculation

Performance Benefits

xxHash provides significantly faster hashing compared to SHA-256 while maintaining excellent collision resistance for duplicate detection use cases.
