this is nonsense. go away.
Not sure what I did wrong, but I didn't intend to offend you. I don't mind you closing the issue, but asking me to "go away" feels… odd?
The request was not in any way helpful or relevant - there are very few binaries here and they're just bundled files that won't change. I assumed it was automated reputation farming. Chatgpt is not welcome here. Hope that clarifies.
That‘s cool, I get that. Even though only the explanation in the blockquote was from ChatGPT.
I have noticed that
benny
has some binary files checked in and would recommend using Git LFS for those. I made the necessary changes locally, but git forbids me to push those changes to my fork.Chat GPT was so kind to summarize the advantages of using Git LFS better than I could:
Instead, I want to share a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this:
0. Install Git LFS
Download the installer or install it with a package manager
Activate Git LFS in the repository:
1. Track files in Git LFS
Specify which file types or individual files should be managed by Git LFS
This will modify the existing
.gitattributes
and add new filters. It should look something like this:2. Check in this file
Commit your changes
3. Rewrite History
Next up, it is recommended to add these files to Git LFS retroactively.
:warning: Rewriting history is a significant operation that will change commit hashes. This will require force-pushing the changes to your remote repository and all collaborators will need to re-clone the repository.
4. Notify the team
Contributors should clone the repository anew to get the new history. They also need to install and setup Git LFS as a one-time operation.
Again, I'm sorry I could not contribute these changes myself. Also, I understand if you don't want to follow this recommendation for whatever reasons 😉
