Repository size bloat because of installer files

Open LazarQt opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Hi

MTGAHelperTracker.msi binary is found almost 40 times in git history which makes the repository huge although the installer file isn't currently checked in.

A quick and dirty solution would be to run BFG (https://rtyley.github.io/bfg-repo-cleaner/).

Just a nitpick but on slower internet speeds this might be a bigger issue.

Cheers

Should we add *.msi to the gitignore file as well to prevent future check-ins?

Hi Duncan

Given your expertise I have this weird feeling this might be a rhetorical question?

SHOULD msi files always be tracked in the main branch? I would have said no before but now I am not sure.
