# Using ctags to help GPT-4 understand an entire repo
GPT-4 is great at coding, but it's hard to work with it to make
modifications inside a large code base.
GPT can't really understand and navigate more code than can fit
in its context window.
And many
common types of code changes will need knowledge and context from
multiple files strewn about the repo.
A new experimental feature of `aider` uses `ctags` to give GPT a
**repo map**, so that it can better understand and navigate larger repos.
=======
# Enhancing GPT-4's understanding of entire repos using ctags
While GPT-4 excels at coding tasks, it struggles with making modifications within large code bases. Its limited context window prevents it from understanding and navigating code beyond its capacity. Many common code changes require knowledge and context from multiple files scattered throughout the repo. To address this issue, `aider` introduces an experimental feature that utilizes `ctags` to provide GPT with a **repo map**, enabling it to better comprehend and navigate larger repositories.

# Context:
USER: improve the para starting "Of course for large repos"
ASSISTANT: ```markdown
docs/ctags.md
<<<<<<< ORIGINAL
Of course, for large repos even their map might be too large for
the context window.
But this mapping approach enables
collaboration with GPT-4 on larger code bases
than was previously possible.
And it reduces the need to manually curate which files to add
to the chat, giving GPT itself more ability to identify which files
are relevant to the task at hand.
=======
Of course, for large repositories, even their map might be too large for the context window. However, this mapping approach significantly improves collaboration with GPT-4 on larger codebases compared to previous methods. It also minimizes the need for manual curation of files to add to the chat, empowering GPT to autonomously identify relevant files for the task at hand.

# Context:
USER: make -v short for --verbose
ASSISTANT: To make `-v` a short option for `--verbose`, you can modify the `aider/main.py` file. Here's the change:
```python
aider/main.py
<<<<<<< ORIGINAL
parser.add_argument(
"--verbose",
action="store_true",
help="Enable verbose output",
default=False,
)
=======
parser.add_argument(
"-v", "--verbose",
action="store_true",
help="Enable verbose output",
default=False,
)
>>>>>>> UPDATED
```
# Context:
USER: Add --verbose with no env default. pass into Coder and set self.verbose
ASSISTANT: To add the `--verbose` option, we need to modify the `aider/main.py` file. Here's the step-by-step process:
1. Add the `--verbose` argument to the `argparse.ArgumentParser` in the `main` function.
2. Pass the `args.verbose` value to the `Coder` class when initializing it.
3. Update the `Coder` class in the `aider/coder.py` file to accept the `verbose` parameter and set `self.verbose`.
Here are the changes to the code:
```python
aider/main.py
<<<<<<< ORIGINAL
parser.add_argument(
"--yes",
action="store_true",
help="Always say yes to every confirmation",
default=False,
)
=======
parser.add_argument(
"--yes",
action="store_true",
help="Always say yes to every confirmation",
default=False,

"--verbose",

default=False,
)

You can also use additional command-line options to customize the behavior of the tool. The following options are available, along with their corresponding environment variable overrides:
- `--input-history-file INPUT_HISTORY_FILE`: Specify the chat input history file (default: .aider.input.history). Override the default with the environment variable `AIDER_INPUT_HISTORY_FILE`.
- `--chat-history-file CHAT_HISTORY_FILE`: Specify the chat history file (default: .aider.chat.history.md). Override the default with the environment variable `AIDER_CHAT_HISTORY_FILE`.
- `--model MODEL`: Specify the model to use for the main chat (default: gpt-4). Override the default with the environment variable `AIDER_MODEL`.
- `-3`: Use gpt-3.5-turbo model for the main chat (not advised). No environment variable override.
