Gitingest

Turn any Git repository into a prompt-friendly text digest for LLMs.

Visit gitingest.com ↗

Gitingest converts any public or private GitHub repository into a single, clean text digest containing directory structures and file contents. It eliminates the manual work of cloning and aggregating code to feed into ChatGPT, Claude, or other language models. You can quickly ingest any repo by simply changing 'github.com' to 'gitingest.com' in the URL.

What it's for

  • Feed an entire open-source repository into an LLM context window
  • Extract code digests from private repositories using personal access tokens
  • Inspect the text directory structure and code summaries of third-party packages

Features

  • URL shortcut to ingest repos by swapping 'hub' for 'ingest'
  • Configurable include/exclude patterns and file size limits
  • Support for private repositories using temporary personal access tokens
  • Available as a web app, Chrome extension, and Python package (CLI/library)
  • Directory structure and combined file content extraction
  • Open-source codebase with zero persistent storage of cloned code

Why it was saved

  • @Sumanth_077, 22 February 2025: Removes the friction of copying a codebase for LLMs: no cloning, no combining files by hand. Type a repo, get a text ready to paste straight into ChatGPT or any LLM, as demoed with ollama/ollama.
