Bug Description

Running exiftool can take an extremely long time for very large panoramas, and in any case leaves behind numerous temp files. So some people would prefer not to do that.

This patch adds a checkbox in the preferences dialog, and a corresponding configuration setting, that selects whether or not exiftool commands will be included in the stitching control makefile. The default is to run exiftool.

CORRECTED PATCH

The 1st version of this patch had an error, that caused the initial state of the switch to be OFF, even though the default state is ON. So it has been replaced by the corrected second version.
File Added: ExifOption2.patch

STILL MORE CORRECT PATCH

This last (I promise) version better conforms to hugin standards by setting the default value of the /Exif/DoCopy switch with a #define in config_defaults.h

File Added: ExifOption3.patch
