Show HN: Replace "hub" by "ingest" in GitHub URLs for a prompt-friendly extract

Gitingest is a open-source micro dev-tool that I made over the last week.

It turns any public Github repository into a text extract that you can give to your favourite LLM easily.

Today I added this url trick to make it even easier to use!

How I use it myself: - Quickly generate a README.md boilerplate for a project - Ask LLMs questions about an undocumented codebase

It is still very much work in progress and I plan to add many more options (file size limits, exclude patterns..) and a public API

I hope this tool can help you Your feedback is very valuable to help me prioritize And contributions are welcome!
