Oh, I didn't understand what I was doing with the git fsck command. Still, Even after removing the the largest blob in the repo with run git filter-branch --index-filter \ 'git rm --cached --ignore-unmatch release/osx/matplotlib-0.98.5.tar.gz' \ -- 750059aa09340^.. the blob still exists, but is not associated with a commit according to git log --pretty=oneline -- release/osx/matplotlib-0.98.5.tar.gz That blob accounts for 1/4 of the total size of the repo. It would be nice to get rid of it, if possible.
