feat: add .cmtignore support for excluding files from LLM analysis#29
Conversation
Large generated files (migrations, schemas, etc.) can overwhelm the LLM context window. This adds a .cmtignore file (glob patterns) to permanently exclude files from commit message generation, plus a max_file_lines threshold (default 5000) that prompts users to add oversized files. Files in .cmtignore are still committed normally — they're only skipped for LLM analysis. Skipped/ignored files display dimmed with a ~ marker in the staged files summary.

- Update indentation and line breaks in src/git.rs and src/cmtignore.rs - Improve readability of test assertions and complex format! macros - Ensure consistent code style across the project
