fetchit :)

fetch project context fast. a sidebar lists files and folders (respecting .gitignore + extra excludes). copy a neat, fenced snippet with language and relative path.

features

• activity bar view with folders + files
• multi-select → copy selected files
• copy a single file, an entire folder, or the whole workspace
• explorer right-click: "fetchit: copy file" / "fetchit: copy folder"
• respects .gitignore and fetchit.excludeGlobs
• automatic fallback to file save when clipboard is truncated
• displays line count for copied content

usage

1. open the fetchit icon in the activity bar
2. multi-select files (ctrl/cmd-click) → copy selected
3. click a folder's inline action → copy folder
4. use the title action → copy all
5. from the normal explorer, right-click any file/folder → fetchit: copy …

settings

• fetchit.excludeGlobs (array): extra excludes in addition to .gitignore
• fetchit.wrapAsCodeBlock (boolean): wrap output with code fences
• fetchit.separator (string): separator between multiple files

recent updates

• [X] fixed gitignore relative path and levels handling
• [X] fixed clipboard truncation problem for large content
• [X] added automatic save-to-file when clipboard is truncated

notes

• binary/huge files are skipped; text files are copied with their relative path as a header.
• when copying large amounts of content that exceed clipboard limits, fetchit automatically offers to save to a file instead
• shows line count in notifications (e.g., "copied 15 files (2,847 lines)")
