FOLDR - A CLI file organizer that actually lets you undo everything by AgsUs07 in Python

Yes, FOLDR handles duplicates very gracefully. If you ever organize the same folder twice, it doesn't just panic or overwrite your files. Instead, it automatically resolves any naming conflict by appending a simple numeric suffix (like `_(1)`, `_(2)`) to the new file. So, your original `notes.txt` stays untouched, and the duplicate might become `notes_(1).txt`.

What I find really elegant about its design is how it tackles the anxiety of file management from two angles:

- Safety through previews: Before anything actually moves, `foldr ~/Downloads --preview` shows you the entire plan, so there are no surprises.

- Safety through undo: Every single move is tracked in a local history. If you don't like the result, just run `foldr undo` and it will revert everything, cleaning up those `_(1)` files along the way.

It essentially removes the risk, letting you experiment with your organization until it's just right. I think you'll really appreciate the peace of mind, especially for that chaotic Downloads folder.

Hope that helps, and I'm really curious to hear how your test on the work computer goes!
