go-picture-cleanup
This is a small utility to resolve the issue of Adobe Lightroom importing not only RAW images but also the accompanying JPEG files (in case your camera writes both format, i.e. you configured it to do so).
I have configured my camera to do so because the JPG files are handy for faster 1:1 magnification (on the camera) - and the RAW files are obviously want you want for further processing.
One could just run rm *.jpg - risking to delete JPEGs for which no RAW file exists (like pictures received from someone else, from your phone or drone).
This simple tool lists all JPEGs for which RAW files exist.
Matching is done based on the name.
By default nef, arw and dng are considered RAW files - but this can be overridden using the -raw-exts flag providing a comma-separated list.
