How to Remove Large Files From Your Git Commit History
While working on an AI-related app recently using vectors, I found myself with a 115MB file in my repository. While attempting to push to GitHub, I got an error in GitKraken about a hook failing. I didn’t have any hooks locally or remotely, so the issue was a bit perplexing. After trying a few things, I resorted to command-line Git, and that’s when I saw the problem. GitHub blocks files larger than 100 megabytes. They recommend using Git Large File Storage, but I decided maybe I shouldn’t be adding large vector files into my repository anyway.
