[17.0] pandoc deb file (30 mb) committed to git history

Open rrebollo opened this issue 8 months ago • 0 comments

Problem:
The binary file pandoc-3.3-1-amd64.deb (>30 MB) was accidentally committed, bloating the repository and slowing down clones.

Solution:

  1. Purge from history with git filter-repo or BFG.
  2. Add to .gitignore to prevent re-adding.

Why?

  • Keeps repo lightweight
  • Faster for contributors with slow connections

Thanks for considering this cleanup!
