Embed GitLab repository details in your WordPress posts and pages simply by pasting the URL.

== Description ==

WMT GitLab Embed allows you to showcase GitLab repositories with a clean, modern design. Just paste a public GitLab URL (e.g., `https://gitlab.com/namespace/project`) on its own line in your block or classic editor, and it will automatically transform into an informative card showing:

* Project name and description
* Stars and Forks count
* Branch and Tag counts
* Integrated scrollable README preview

The plugin uses WordPress Transients to cache API responses locally for 12 hours, ensuring fast load times and minimal external requests.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the `wmt-embed-gitlab` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or install the .zip file via the WordPress admin.
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
3. Paste a GitLab repository URL on its own line into any post or page.
