MNT: reduce repo size

Open Gui-FernandesBR opened this issue 1 year ago • 7 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

As discussed here by @aureliobarbosa, cloning the RocketPy repo currently consumes more more than 1GB. This is probably due to large files being stored

Describe the solution you'd like

There are a few options that we would like to explore in order to tackle this issue. For instance:

  1. Delete old, unused files from the git history. This could include .nc and other binary files that were initially committed to this repo but at some point got deleted.
  2. Use git large file system to store files that are too heavy (>10MB), specially those in the data folder.

Additional context

I have no much experience on this, but I will try listing a few links that may help us.
