    # ActiveRecord enum has undocumented support for enums with string rather than integer representations.
    # To enable it you have to define an enum like so:
    #
    #   enum field: { value1: 'value1', value2: 'value2' }
    #
    # which is rather redundant. This is a shortcut which lets you define it as follows:

How to install

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

# Usage: dedup-imovie-library LIBRARY ORIGINALS
#
# Goes through an iMovie 10 library and replaces all the "Original Media" with
# symlinks to the actual original media, in order to conserve disk space. Note
# that because they're symlinks, if the path to the originals changes (e.g. you
# rename the external drive they are on) then the links will be broken.
#
# This assumes you've already imported the files into iMovie and waited for them
