GitZip for Github- Edge Add-on for Easy Github Repository Downloads

GitZip for Github is a useful Edge add-on designed to optimize how users access and download content from Github. It simplifies the downloads by allowing users to selectively pick sub-directories or files from repositories, thereby avoiding unnecessary downloads of full projects. In addition, GitZip supports two selection options, direct selection via checkboxes or through a context menu. The add-on also provides a function to acquire a Github API access token to enhance the rate limit, ensuring a smooth, uninterrupted usage. Moreover, GitZip is theme-friendly, allowing a choice between light and dark themes based on individual preferences.

I met a bug when I used this extension in Edge. Sometimes it couldn't recognize the repository web page so I couldn't download any folder or file. However, it is normal when I use the same extension in Chrome. This situation just appeared a few days ago. I hope it will be solved in the future version.
