install with uv tool install vectorcode

I tried to use this on my work's monorepo (on aug 4 2025), but it didn't succeed for me:

• intiialize with vectorcode init
  • This creates a .vectorcode directory, as well as adds a post-checkout hook and pre-commit hook.
  • The pre-commit hook is just vectorcode vectorise $diff_files, basically; the post-checkout is similar
• vectorize your code with `vectorcode vectorise **/*.ts , with whatever extensions are relevant for your project
  • it will by default ignore .gitignored files
  • It helpfully notes that its database is at ~/.local/share/vectorcode/chromadb/ (thank you for using the XDG dir)
  • mutliple-extension globs seem not to be supported; you can't do vectorcode vectorise **/*.{ts,js}
    • you can use include file specs to do a similar thing, with gitignore syntax
• Unfortunately, when I go to query my code, it fails with this bug which is marked closed but is very much open
  • I think the author marked it closed because its root cause is this bug in chromadb
