Hi HN
I built GitSlice, a fast CLI tool that lets you extract just a folder or file from a GitHub repo — without cloning the whole thing.
It uses sparse-checkout under the hood and resolves GitHub URLs automatically. Useful for grabbing only what you need from giant monorepos.
Example: gitslice https://github.com/05sanjaykumar/Flappy-Bird-OpenCV/blob/mai...
Supports folders and files Auto-detects branches CLI only, no GUI fluff Fully open-source
