DESCRIPTION

rga (reverse Google search assistant) is a command-line tool designed to simplify the process of reverse image searching using Google Images.
It automates the steps of downloading an image, uploading it to Google Images, and opening the search results in your web browser.
This can be useful for identifying the origin of an image, finding similar images, or detecting potential copyright infringements. rga streamlines what would otherwise be a multi-step process into a single, easy-to-use command.

CAVEATS

rga depends on external tools like curl (or wget) for downloading images and a web browser for displaying the search results.
Google's search algorithms and website structure can change, potentially breaking rga's functionality. In those cases, updates to the tool may be required.
