remove large files from git commit history #19

Open ctb opened 5 years ago

ctb commented 5 years ago

The whole repo history is in the ~100 MB range, while the current master is only a few MB. This makes it unnecessarily slow to check out the git repo :)

Using the command here, it looks like we need to go remove any trace of testing_out/ from the history. Not quite sure how to do that but this github help article looks legit.

apparently this requires all PR's to be closed, bc merging will be affected? Need to set a time to do this to avoid losing work.
