Create archive directory and use git-lfs to store content #33

Closed willingc closed 8 years ago

Create an archive directory and use git-lfs to efficiently store content (images, media, zip files, pdfs) for archive.

@katiewhite360 @Ruv7 Ping me after the next newsletter is published and I'll archive the issues.

@rgbkrk Anything special that I need to do for the repo other than set the .git-attributes for the large format file types that we will use. I've got the git-lfs client on my machine and have used it with other repos. Thanks.

Once users have lfs installed, when they know they want to version something with lfs that isn't already tracked, they need to run, e.g. git lfs track "*.sketch". That updates the .gitattributes file for you. The hardest part of that burden is getting all contributors to install LFS, though they can use the repo without it.

@rgbkrk Thanks!
