Reduce repository size #29

Open betolink opened 5 years ago

betolink commented 5 years ago

There is a folder on the git history that is no longer used but it contains big files samples so I think it would be a good idea to delete that folder as I did on my fork to reduce the repository size. I pruned the folder from git history and now the repo is only 2.6MB instead of 400MB. I could open a PR for this or maybe you can do it yourself. Thanks for the amazing work!

Is there a way to do this where I can still recover that folder if I need it? Say I wanted to checkout an old commit and run the site, would that folder be missing?

If you delete it from the history it will be gone. So you should backup it locally first and then prune this online repository
