AI Summary
A bug-fix patch that resolves a WebAssembly memory leak and fixes token counting and directory tree rendering issues on Windows.
Key Highlights
- Fixed a WebAssembly memory leak in `web-tree-sitter` that affected large repositories.
- `--remove-comments` now strips comments from additional JavaScript/TypeScript module files (`.mjs`, `.cjs`, etc.).
- Token count tree now includes directories prefixed with underscores (e.g., `__tests__`).
- Fixed directory tree collapse and file sorting issues on Windows.
Full Release Notes
This release is a bug-fix patch: it plugs a WebAssembly memory leak, extends comment removal to more JavaScript/TypeScript module files, and fixes the token count tree for underscore-prefixed directories and the directory tree on Windows. Updating to 1.16.1 is recommended for all users. ## Improvements ⚡ ### Fixed a WebAssembly Memory Leak (#1681) Parsed `web-tree-sitter` `Tree` objects were not released after use, leaking WebAssembly heap memory when parsing or compressing many files — noticeable on large repositories. Each tree is now freed right after parsing, keeping memory usage stable. Special thanks to @isaka1022 for their first contribution! 🎉 ### Comment Removal for More Module Files (#1683) `--remove-comments` now strips comments from JavaScript/TypeScript module files that were previously skipped — `.mjs`, `.cjs`, `.mts`, `.cts`, and their JSX variants `.mjsx` / `.mtsx`. ```bash repomix --remove-comments ``` Special thanks to @serhiizghama for this contribution! 🎉 ### Token Count Tree: Count Underscore-Prefixed Directories (#1710) Directories whose names start with an underscore (for example `__tests__` or `__mocks__`) were dropped from the `--token-count-tree` output and excluded from the token totals. They are now rendered and counted like any other directory. ```bash repomix --token-count-tree ``` Special thanks to @serhiizghama for this contribution! 🎉 ### Correct Directory Tree and File Ordering on Windows (#1712) On Windows, the `<directory_structure>` section collapsed into a flat list of full paths and file sorting fell back to a plain string comparison, because already-normalized (`/`-separated) paths were being split on the OS separator (`\`). Paths are now normalized before splitting, so the tree nests correctly and files sort in directory-aware order on every platform. Special thanks to @serhiizghama for this contribution! 🎉 ## How to Update ```bash npm update -g repomix ``` --- As always, if you have any issues or suggestions, please let us know on GitHub issues or our [Discord community](https://discord.gg/wNYzTwZFku).
