Known Beta Limitations

Since GitHub integration is in beta, some features are still being refined:
  • Branch support: Currently only works with the main/master branch
  • Large repositories: Very large repositories might sync slowly
  • File types: Only syncs common code files (JS, JSX, HTML, CSS, etc.)
  • Rate limits: GitHub API limits may cause temporary delays
We’re actively working on improvements! Your feedback in Discord helps us prioritize what to fix first.
