baler is a CLI-tool to convert a text based directory (like a code repository) into a minimal set of files designed for use with LLMs like Claude, LLama.
For interfaces where someone cannot sync their projects automatically like Claude, LLama, (and unlike Codeium, Copilot), baler would help you convert a source code repository into a few text files dealing with which can be much easier.
Text that separates 2 files in the generated file. Note that this delimiter is ALWAYS. - prefixed by a new line ("\n") - suffixed by the next file name and a new line ("\n") (default "// filename: ")
The minimum buffer size reserved is 64kB. The maximum buffer size defaults to --max-input-file-size if this option isn't specified.

Answer: This is a feature, not a bug ;). This makes an user aware of all the exclusions and edge cases. There could also be a --ignore-errors mode that makes the tool behave this way which will come in if this sees a 0.0.1 release.
