- Add pathspec import with graceful fallback
- Add gitignore_spec attribute to GitHubScraper class
- Implement _load_gitignore() method to parse .gitignore files
- Update should_exclude_dir() to check .gitignore rules
- Load .gitignore automatically in local repository mode
- Handle directory patterns with and without trailing slash
- Add 4 comprehensive tests for .gitignore functionality
Closes#63 - C2.1 File Tree Walker with .gitignore support complete
Features:
- Loads .gitignore from local repository root
- Respects .gitignore patterns for directory exclusion
- Falls back gracefully when pathspec not installed
- Works alongside existing hard-coded exclusions
- Only active in local_repo_path mode (not GitHub API mode)
Test coverage:
- test_load_gitignore_exists: .gitignore parsing
- test_load_gitignore_missing: Missing .gitignore handling
- test_should_exclude_dir_with_gitignore: .gitignore exclusion
- test_should_exclude_dir_default_exclusions: Existing exclusions still work
Integration:
- github_scraper.py now has same .gitignore support as codebase_scraper.py
- Both tools use pathspec library for consistent behavior
- Enables proper repository analysis respecting project .gitignore rules
**Problem #1: Large File Encoding Error** ✅ FIXED
- Add large file download support via download_url
- Detect encoding='none' for files >1MB
- Download via GitHub raw URL instead of API

**Problem #2: Missing CLI Enhancement Flags** ✅ FIXED
- Add --enhance, --enhance-local, --api-key to main.py github_parser
- Add flag forwarding in CLI dispatcher
- Fixes 'unrecognized arguments' error
- Users can now use: skill-seekers github --repo owner/repo --enhance-local

Fixes#219🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add _get_file_content() helper method to detect and follow symlinks
- Update _extract_readme() to use new helper
- Update _extract_changelog() to use new helper
- Add 7 comprehensive tests for symlink handling
- All 29 GitHub scraper tests passing
Fixes#225
When README.md or CHANGELOG.md are symlinks (like in vercel/ai repo),
PyGithub returns ContentFile with type='symlink' and encoding=None.
Direct access to decoded_content throws AssertionError.
Solution: Detect symlink type, follow target path, then decode actual file.
Handles edge cases: broken symlinks, missing targets, encoding errors.
