Release v0.23.0-alpha6 the tags release 🏗️ Work in progress 🏗️

New features

Folder import tags
Its now possible to assign tags to photos and videos:

--folder-as-tags                     Use the folder structure as tags, (ex: the file "holidays/summer 2024/file.jpg" get the tag holidays/summer 2024)
--session-tag                        Tag uploaded photos with a tag "{immich-go}/YYYY-MM-DD HH-MM-SS"
--tag strings                        Add tags to the imported assets. Can be specified multiple times. Hierarchy is supported using a / separator (e.g. 'tag1/subtag1')

The session tag is useful to identify all photos imported at the same time. It's easy to remove them from the tag screen

Google photos import tags

--takeout-tag                        Tag uploaded photos with the takeout file name: "{takeout}/takeout-YYYYMMDDTHHMMSSZ"
--session-tag                        Tag uploaded photos with a tag "{immich-go}/YYYY-MM-DD HH-MM-SS"
--tag strings                        Add tags to the imported assets. Can be specified multiple times. Hierarchy is supported using a / separator (e.g. 'tag1/subtag1')

Breaking change since v0.23.0-alpha5

A metadata file is created withe same name as the main file, but with the extension .json. The XMP file is left untouched.

Fixes

• #533 RAW file metadata
  The efforts for determining the capture date from the file name are useless.
  Now the file date is provided to Immich as if the file was dropped on the immich's page.
  The --capture-date-method is now set to NONE by default.
• [#534] Errors on windows
