enormous repo size (~400mb) about dtreeviz HOT 6 CLOSED

Yeah, sorry. it's those damn samples :( i wanted them around for people to see a gallery but gees they are big. (resisting XML/SVG target practice here...)

from dtreeviz.

I think having the samples makes sense - but you can see you actually have 3 copies of the same file in git history:

c0e22ce1ad0b   12MiB testing/samples/sweets-TD-4.svg
92e68cee1463   12MiB testing/samples/sweets-TD-4.svg
5f83e5ce4ca6   12MiB testing/samples/sweets-TD-4.svg

where testing/samples is not big:

 64M	./testing/samples

Heh, obviously your call. I think it took me 6 minutes to clone, I actually think it might impact people's interest over time. It might be pretty frustrating for people that don't have decent internet connections. Maybe I should've just done:

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/parrt/animl

which cuts the .git size down to 15M. I don't personally have a habit of doing that on every new repo, but this one makes me think maybe I should, haha.

from dtreeviz.

hahah. yep! i learned to do depth 1 on the intellij repo which has millions of commits. I'll try to clean this up. you're absolutely right.

Hmmm...I looked at people's suggestions for removing previous versions of large files and it's pretty terrifying. Maybe the easiest thing to do is simply destroy the repository and copy the files fresh to simulate a depth of one. I'm not in love with my trail of dead code and commit messages so it would not be a huge loss. This might depend on what I do in response to this issue

from dtreeviz.

I'm going to rename this repo to dtreeviz and squash all commits. :)
