GitSaver is a Chrome extension developed by Brahmastra that allows users to save selected GitHub files and folders directly to a desired location without the need to create a zip file. This lightweight extension, only 10Kb in size, offers the convenience of saving files from both public and private GitHub repositories without the requirement of an API token. Additionally, it eliminates the need for creating zip files, moving files, and has no API limits.

One of the standout features of GitSaver is its ability to pipe streams to reduce memory usage, ensuring efficient file saving processes. This extension is disabled by default, providing users with the flexibility to enable it only when needed. Moreover, GitSaver is free, open-source, and emphasizes user privacy with no tracking or ads.
