Description

One big problem I have is that i will add something, and then forget the hash. I need a way to go and look up things that i've already added. This also has the added bonus of being able to go through and see which pins you want to remove when cleaning up your disk.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how to implement a logging mechanism for the ipfs add command, possibly by extending the command to store hash and file paths in a local log file. Review existing similar features in IPFS or other tools. Focus on the command line interface and output handling in Go.
