Script to strip various iTunes atoms from purchased AAC files via AtomicParsley.
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# usage: stripiT.rb file1.m4a file2.m4a file3.m4a
# automatically outputs to file1 - stripped.m4a, file2 - stripped.m4a, and so on.
# Script to remove extraneous/unwanted atoms from iTunes purchased files by way of AtomicParsley.
# Output should be comparable to the atoms left over after reencoding the file in iTunes itself.
# I only care about songs, so I have no clue how well this applies to video files
# Some information taken from: https://code.google.com/p/mp4v2/wiki/iTunesMetadata

Don't commit focused tests. Use this as a pre-commit hook and the commit won't succeed if you have staged changes that contain `fdescribe`, `fcontext`, `fit`, `fspecify` or `fexample`. Copy this file as `pre-commit` into the `.git/hooks` folder of your repository (create it if neccessary) and chmod +x the file.
#!/bin/sh
#
# This pre-commit hook looks for `fdescribe`, `fcontext`, `fit`, `fspecify` and `fexample` in the
# staged files and exits with an error code of 1 if there are such changes.
