Currently, git2txt defaults to the repository’s default branch when converting its contents into a text file. However, many repositories maintain multiple branches (e.g., develop, feature/, release/) that users might want to analyze or document separately. The ability to specify a branch would provide greater flexibility and control over which version of the repository is processed.
Introduce a new command-line option (e.g., --branch or -b) that allows users to specify the branch they wish to convert. For example:
git2txt username/repository --branch=develop
Proposed Option Details:
Option Name: --branch or -b
Description: Specifies the branch of the repository to use for conversion.
Default Behavior: If the option is not provided, the tool will continue to use the repository’s default branch.
# Specify the 'develop' branch
git2txt username/repository --branch=develop
# Using the short flag
git2txt username/repository -b feature/new-feature
Benefits:
Flexibility: Users can choose which branch to convert, enabling analysis of different development stages.
Efficiency: Facilitates working with repositories that have active development on multiple branches without needing to switch branches manually.
Enhanced Functionality: Aligns git2txt with common Git workflows, making it more versatile for various use cases.
