Hi Saskia, There's some documentation on this at https://bioconductor.org/developers/how-to/git/remove-large-data/
I guess the most pertinent part is "The Bioconductor git server does not allow -f or to force push to the git.bioconductor.org location. Please email bioc-devel@r-project.org explaining the package has been cleaned for large data files and needs to be reset.". Seems like you've done the emailing part, so I'm sure someone will be in touch soon.
