🦜 Add Duplicate Detector

[William-McGonagle]

Idea

I just learned that duplicate lines are a problem in large codebases. So, we should make a system that detects duplicate chunks of code. This duplicate detector should not fire off if there are a few similar lines, but it should be triggered when an entire function is duplicated, or giant chunks of code are duplicated a bunch.

This detector can either be built using plaintext or by using the abstract syntax tree generated by the babel parser. I think that the system would be much more powerful if we build it using the babel parser.

Todo

• Build a system to detect important code chunks using the babel parser
• Store the important code chunks
• Check in the code where the important chunks of code are repeated
