问题:read https://github.com/adhikasp/mcp-git-ingest and determine how the code technically works
回答:

The mcp-git-ingest repository is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to help read GitHub repository structures and important files. Here’s how the code technically works:

1. Purpose:

   • It provides two main tools:
     • git_directory_structure: Returns a tree-like representation of a repository’s directory structure.
     • git_read_important_files: Reads and returns the contents of specified files in a repository.

2. Technical Implementation:

   • Dependencies:

     • Uses fastmcp for creating an MCP server.
     • Uses gitpython for Git repository operations.
     • Requires Python 3.8+.

   • Key Functions:

     • clone_repo(repo_url: str) -> str:

       • Creates a deterministic temporary directory based on the repository URL’s hash.
       • Checks if the repository is already cloned.
       • If not, clones the repository.
       • Handles error cases and cleanup.
       • Returns the path to the cloned repository.

     • get_directory_tree(path: str, prefix: str = "") -> str:

       • Recursively generates a tree-like directory structure.
       • Skips .git directories.
       • Uses Unicode box-drawing characters to create a visual tree representation.
       • Handles sorting of entries.

     • git_directory_structure(repo_url: str) -> str:

       • Clones the repository.
       • Generates directory tree.
       • Cleans up the temporary repository after processing.
       • Returns the tree structure or an error message.

     • git_read_important_files(repo_url: str, file_paths: List[str]) -> dict[str, str]:

       • Clones the repository.
       • Reads specified files.
       • Returns a dictionary mapping file paths to their contents.
       • Handles file reading errors.
       • Cleans up the temporary repository.

3. Error Handling:

   • Uses try-except blocks to handle repository cloning and file reading errors.
   • Ensures temporary directories are always cleaned up using finally blocks.
   • Returns descriptive error messages.

4. Performance Optimizations:

   • Uses a hash-based temporary directory naming to potentially reuse cloned repositories.
   • Checks for existing repositories before cloning.
   • Implements cleanup to prevent accumulation of temporary files.

5. Unique Features:

   • Deterministic temporary directory creation.
   • Unicode tree representation.
   • Flexible file reading with error handling.

6. Execution:

   • Can be run as a CLI tool via mcp-git-ingest.
   • Configured through [pyproject.toml](file://d:\agent-llm\mcp_ser\jupyter-notebook-mcp\pyproject.toml).
   • Depends on fastmcp for MCP server functionality.

The code is a robust, flexible tool for programmatically exploring and reading GitHub repositories, with a focus on error handling and clean implementation.
