3. Save the result in a file in Json format

ghtracker  --url https://github.com/AFLplusplus/LibAFL -t -r --output ./test.json

4. Search Code Pattern in 'Dependency graph' (Need Github Token)

ghtracker --url https://github.com/AFLplusplus/LibAFL --token your_token_value -t --search AFL --output ./test.json

5. Get all repositories in the 'Dependency graph'

ghtracker  --url https://github.com/AFLplusplus/LibAFL -t -r -m 0 --output ./test.json

Why ghtracker

1. Gtihub does not support sorting the 'Dependency graph' by the number of Stars from 2019 until now, so ghtracker was born. Detials in issue in 1537
2. GHTOPDEP does not continue to update support, and there are some issues in the community, e.g., issue. ghtracker has optimized and improved on this, and has addressed issues in the community.
