Committing package files is bad practice for git #62

Closed gdevenyi closed 3 years ago

gdevenyi commented 3 years ago

The files here, https://github.com/frankyeh/DSI-Studio/tree/master/packages

Should be attached here: https://github.com/frankyeh/DSI-Studio/releases instead.

Committing package files into git makes downloads huge, as a git clone will require downloading of every package file ever committed.

Thank you for the suggestion. I am going to remove the packages.
