you can't :-( ... not without modifying history. the pyjamas repository really is far too large for such a small project (something like 20-30MiB), the solution is writing a trixy git filter to go back to the beginning and prune everything. since this alters history and is destructive, a future `git pull` on an existing repository will be rejected, but not sure anyone really cares ... it's trivial to recover from. it's been discussed before with positive feedback IIRC, just need to be done ... then maybe some git hooks put into place to scrub incoming commits. > In a similar vein, I haven't removed simplejson as it isn't installed > by default (at least on Mac OS 10.6.8) and is required by the jsonrpc > code (used by the python echos -- cgi and mod_python).
