I'm not keen on storing binaries in this repo, especially ones we don't need (this could be any binary file). Could we add instructions on how to pull this file (using curl) from elsewhere instead?
@jcoyne just curious, why no example binaries in a repo?
@cmh2166 binaries make the git repo grow very big, it's not well suited to storing binaries as they they have to basically be stored as full files, even if we decide to remove it from HEAD, it'll have to hold that file in case you want to checkout the old version. This is something we've run into in the hydra project https://github.com/samvera/hydra-jetty
Can we add this to the readme instead?
curl -L https://github.com/samvera/hyrax/raw/master/spec/fixtures/hyrax/hyrax_test4.pdf -o myfile.pdf
That’s fine for me
