Recommended action: Limit what aider scans (--subtree-only, .aiderignore) or add relevant files explicitly; restart aider after narrowing.
Option: Limit what aider scans (--subtree-only, .aiderignore) or add relevant files explicitly; restart aider after narrowing. [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: Using aider in a very large repository
Steps:
1. Start aider from a subdirectory with --subtree-only
2. Add large vendored/generated dirs to .aiderignore
3. Explicitly /add or /read-only key files since the map is off
Expected: The error no longer appears.
