Add a structured config file so common defaults can live in one place
instead of being repeated in aliases or shell wrappers. CLI flags keep
precedence, which keeps one-off overrides predictable.
Use tomlq only when a config file is present, and fail early on missing
dependencies or invalid TOML so configuration mistakes do not silently
change encode behavior.
Move the persistent skip-codec list from the legacy skip.conf file to
[skip] codecs in config.toml. Config codecs are merged with --skip-codec
so global defaults and per-run skips can be combined.
Document the new format in the README and man page, update dependency
notes, and extend bash completion for config-file paths and the new
negative boolean flags.
BREAKING CHANGE: skip.conf is no longer read for codec skips. Migrate
its entries to [skip] codecs in config.toml and remove the old file.
BREAKING CHANGE: --encodefile and --encodefile= are replaced by
--encode-file and --encode-file=. Update scripts, aliases, and
completion usage to use the hyphenated option name.

Batch transcode helper for media files using ffmpeg. Encoding parameters
are supplied by user-defined preset files (shell snippets that set an
`ffargs` array) stored under
${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/transcode.sh/presets/.
Key capabilities:
- Probes input codec and pixel format via ffprobe; derives an output
pixel format that preserves chroma subsampling and bit depth.
- Per-user and per-invocation codec skip lists to leave already-encoded
files untouched.
- Atomic in-place replacement: encodes to a temp file in the same
directory, then renames on success.
- --only-if-smaller: discard the result if it is larger than the
original.
- --saving: append filename, original/new sizes and percentage saved to
a log file after each successful encode.
- --dry-run, --verbose, --quiet, --nice and --continue flags.
- Respects the NO_COLOR standard.
- Script hardening: strict PATH, safe IFS, errtrace, nounset, pipefail.
Also included:
- Man page (transcode.sh.1)
- Bash completion script (transcode.sh.bash-completion)
- README.md
- .gitmessage commit message template
