I would find this more interesting if it made tutorials out if the Linux, LLVM, OpenZFS and FreeBSD codebases.

The Linux repository has ~50M tokens, which goes beyond the 1M token limit for Gemini 2.5 Pro. I think there are two paths forward: (1) decompose the repository into smaller parts (e.g., kernel, shell, file system, etc.), or (2) wait for larger-context models with a 50M+ input limit.

The first path would be the most interesting, especially if it can be automated.
