What
Add a new
acb compile --no-gitignoreflag to disable.gitignorefiltering during source discovery.By default,
acb compilerespects.gitignore, which can unintentionally hide large parts of a codebase from ingestion. This is especially common in reverse engineering workflows where decompiled sources are intentionally kept out of version control.With
--no-gitignore, users can compile the full source tree (including ignored paths) without changing repository ignore rules.Why this is useful for reverse engineering
In RE projects, directories like
decompiled/or JADX output are often ignored to avoid polluting git history. That is good for versioning hygiene, but bad for analysis coverage when compiling semantic graphs.This flag allows users to:
.acbcompilation.gitignoreedits or moving directories aroundType
