What is GitZip for github?
GitZip for GitHub is a convenient Chrome extension that allows users to selectively download sub-directories and files from GitHub repositories as a ZIP file. By enabling downloads of only needed components, it eradicates the requirement to grab an entire project. It offers straightforward usage either by double-clicking or context menu with configurable item selection and theme settings, a progress dashboard, API token support for rate limit enhancement, and is updated to be compatible with Manifest V3 specifications.
