🐛 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

"Invalid Git repository"

Ensure you're in a Git repository or provide correct path
Check Git installation: git --version

"Permission denied"

Verify read access to repository
Check file permissions on .git directory

"No commits found"

Repository may be empty or newly initialized
Try with a repository that has commits

Debug Mode
