.doit.db.dat file getting bigger and bigger.

partrita opened this issue · 2 comments

I use github page to depoyments. buy my .doit.db.dat file is now 58 Mb.
As you know, github allows under 50 Mb per file(except for Git LFS).
Is there anyway to reduce file size?

Thank you in advance.

You shouldn’t commit .doit.db.* and cache to git, they are transient state.

If the file seems too large nevertheless, you can try removing it, it will be re-created and might end up being smaller

Oh, I didn't know that. This was my .gitignore file.
