Reduce repository size #3415

Closed RoiArthurB closed 1 year ago

RoiArthurB commented 2 years ago

Is your request related to a problem? Please describe. Today's GAMA's github repository (after a fresh clone dated on commit 3422b50da) size 1.4 GiB, but most of it (1.1GiB) is only dedicated to git history !! image

Describe the improvement you'd like Maybe we could reduce size of this history in different ways :

AlexisDrogoul commented 2 years ago

Just to mention that we are also running out of LFS space...

RoiArthurB commented 2 years ago

Git LFS and Git history files are two things totally unrelated, first in practice, and second because gama-platform/gama repository doesn't use LFS :)

And the LFS GH's space should be resolved soon, it's a problem from one contributor on the experimental repository :)

AlexisDrogoul commented 2 years ago

Has the LFS problem on gama-platform/experimental been solved ?

AlexisDrogoul commented 2 years ago

I think we should move to a solution like the one exposed here (using a history repository): https://andrewlock.net/reducing-the-size-of-a-git-repository-with-git-replace/

AlexisDrogoul commented 1 year ago

I think that we can close this proposal, as GAMA 2.0 will have its own repository --
