Bug description
GitIngest is now broken for local repos for me. It is validating my "GitHub" token, and saying it is invalid — but I am not even using GitHub. Here's the console output.
❯ uv tool run gitingest .
Analyzing source, output will be written to 'digest.txt'...
Error: Invalid GitHub token format. To generate a token, go to https://github.com/settings/tokens/new?description=gitingest&scopes=repo.
2025-07-31 09:49:43.577 | INFO | gitingest.entrypoint:ingest_async:89 | Starting ingestion process | {"source":"."}
Aborted!
I'd suggest not validating any GitHub tokens, etc. when a local repo is being ingested.
Steps to reproduce
Expected behavior
Gitingest working as normal and creating digest.txt, like it did in previous releases.
Actual behavior
Gitingest fails, due to trying to validate a GitHub token that isn't needed.
