firefox-bookmarks-deduplicator

Tool for cleaning up firefox bookmarks backups. Designed for people who don’t want to do that using firefox plugins. My personal use case is merging and versioning backups from many computers, while not using cloud based solutions like Sync.

1. Removes duplicate bookmakrs
2. Merges directories with same name.
