Currently each run of git pull origin STABLE
downloads 554 Mb.
Is it possible to limit data to pull? I believe 0.5Gb is too much.
Unfortunately our repo somehow doesn't play well with git automatic packing and time to time it bloats like this. I will ask GitHub stuff to repack it manually on their side.
Once they will run git gc --aggressive
the repository should be back to 200 MB.
BTW: You can also limit amount of data downloaded if you don't need full history by passing it --depth=100
parameter.
GitHub stuff did compress the repo, though it didn't help as much as on my local copy. Anyway this is probably all we can do.
