treestat-cli 1.1.0

A CLI that displays source file counts in a tree view by directory and language

treestat

Command-line tool that shows source file counts per directory and language in a tree view.

• Flexible filtering: language presets via --lang or custom extensions via --ext.
• Configurable counting: only direct files in each directory (direct) or full subtree aggregation (tree).
• Script‑friendly output: human‑readable text or stable JSON for CI, dashboards, and scripts.
