Quick Start 🚀

# cd into your messy codebase
cd ~/that-project-you-never-finished

# Start typing your own spaghetti code (uses current directory by default)
gittype

# Or specify a specific repository path
gittype /path/to/another/repo

# Clone and play with any GitHub repository
gittype --repo clap-rs/clap
gittype --repo https://github.com/ratatui-org/ratatui
gittype --repo git@github.com:dtolnay/anyhow.git

# Discover and practice with trending GitHub repositories
gittype trending                    # Browse trending repos interactively
gittype trending rust               # Filter by language (Rust)

# Play with cached repositories interactively
gittype repo play

Why GitType? 🤔

• Look busy at work → "I'm studying the codebase" (technically true!)
• Beat the AI overlords → Type faster than ChatGPT can generate
• Stop typing boring stuff → Your own bugs are way more interesting than lorem ipsum
• Discover forgotten treasures → That elegant function you wrote at 3am last year
• Procrastinate like a pro → It's code review, but gamified!
• Embrace your legacy code → Finally face those variable names you're not proud of
• Debug your typing skills → Because pubic static void main isn't a typo anymore
• Therapeutic code reliving → Type through your programming journey, tears included
• Climb the dev ladder → From "Code Monkey" to "Quantum Computer" - each rank comes with fancy ASCII art

"Basically, you need an excuse to avoid real work, and this one's pretty good."
