Remove git LFS hashes. #744

Closed tobeycarman closed 2 months ago

tobeycarman commented 2 months ago

Git LFS usage quotas are too low and the prices too expensive for this project. Removing hashes (the hashes are the small files that are actually tracked) from the project so that users are not getting errors when cloning and checking out. Users may still get errors if they try to checkout a point in the history tree with the hash files tracked. This is surmountable by setting an environment variable telling git-lfs not to run the smudge filter, e.g.:

$ GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1 git checkout <SHA>

This means that for now the testing data is not available with the project. The best way to get the data, which is necessary for building the documentation, will be to contact a maintainer. In the future this data will be stored in a publicly available cloud bucket or similarly accessible location.
