Command Line Global Installation

pip install -e .

Command Line Usage

The gitingest command line tool allows you to analyze any directory and create a text dump of its contents.

Basic Usage

gitingest /path/to/directory

This will create a text file named after your directory (e.g., directory.txt) in your current working directory.

Specifying Output Location

gitingest /path/to/directory -o /path/to/output.txt

Options

• -o, --output: Specify the output file path (default: <directory_name>.txt in current directory)
• -s, --max-size: Maximum file size to process in bytes (default: 10MB)
• -i, --ignore-pattern: Additional patterns to ignore (can be used multiple times)

Examples

# Basic usage
gitingest ~/projects/myproject

# Custom output location
gitingest ~/projects/myproject -o ~/Desktop/analysis.txt

# Ignore specific file patterns
gitingest ~/projects/myproject -i "*.csv" -i "*.json"

# Set maximum file size (e.g., 5MB)
gitingest ~/projects/myproject -s 5000000

Output Format

The generated text file contains:

1. Summary statistics (file count, directory count, content size)
2. Directory tree structure
3. Contents of all text files

Files and directories that are commonly ignored (like .git, node_modules, cache directories, etc.) are automatically excluded. You can add additional patterns to ignore using the -i flag.
