Android: Remove APK from history

[mario]

APKs were built and put into this repository over time. I'd like to completely obliterate them from history as soon as @tobiasKaminsky changes the URLs and everything.

[AndyScherzinger]

If I am not mistaken @tobiasKaminsky's scripts only do this for the beta within the beta branch, right Tobias? Or are we keeping any APKs for the builds via master somewhere?

[mario]

Yes, he changed this, but there also APKs in the auto-upload-apk branch (had no other easy way to distribute APKs fast at that moment) which I'll completely obliterate once auto upload changes are done.

[tobiasKaminsky]

I have changed it now to the nc download server.
Let us wait for the next daily and if everything is working, you can clean the history.
(I do not know how to do this and I am afraid of doing it ;-) )

Just use your own nextcloud server and create a public share with password protection ;-)

This is not done yet, or?
Fresh checked out repo is 306Mb:

• src 12Mb
• all other < 1Mb
• .git: 285Mb

[AndyScherzinger]

Don't think so. Fresh checkout is extremely large regarding the git folder :(

[mario]

Ah I will check.

But I doubt that this are all apks?

[AndyScherzinger]

Having this cleanup gets quite important to me since when I am not at home but somewhere else I might end up with 100-200Kb/s so this takes forever :(

[mario]

Doing it now.

[AndyScherzinger]

:heart: Thank you oh so much @mario :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1:

Roughly 92 MB instead of 300+ MB now :) Enjoy!

Might need a new clone! cc @AndyScherzinger @tobiasKaminsky

[AndyScherzinger]

New clone is fine with me :)
