Hello, Etoys git keeps growing in size because of the etoys.image.gz history. How can we solve this? Maybe download the image at some build stage rather than checking it in git?
Well, I certainly know the problem. I brought up the issue a few month ago, when it was not as bad yet.
It would be very unusual to not have everything you need to build a core activity on laptop.org, right? The easiest thing would be to make git actually do something sensible like check out only the last version. I tried git-tar-tree which supposedly does just that, but couldn't make it work with the --remote option. Maybe some git expert can advise what to do?
Alternatively, we might switch to a more general SCM, like subversion. The problem would just not exist there. Would you be willing to host a subversion repository on dev.laptop.org? I'd rather not make the build depend on even more servers.
