How to Push Large Files in Git
Install Git LFS
git lfs install
Track the Large Files: Add your file types (.sif.tar, .ub, .ubi) to Git LFS tracking:
git lfs track "*.sif.tar"
git lfs track "*.ub"
git lfs track "*.ubi"
This will create a .gitattributes file in your repository, which ensures that these file types are handled by Git LFS.
Stage and Commit the .gitattributes File:
git add .gitattributes
git commit -m "Add large file types to Git LFS tracking"
Push the Repository: Push your changes along with the large files:
git push
Note: If the large files are already committed to the repository, you may need to rewrite the history to move them to Git LFS. Use the git lfs migrate command for this:
git lfs migrate import --include="*.sif.tar,*.ub,*.ubi"
git push --force
Clone a repository with sub-modules
Clone the repository and update submodules
git clone https://vec-git.sds.safran/org/jigs-and-tools/hansjt/hans.swirkalibration.git --recurse-submodules --remote-submodules
Grab the latest commits from the server
git submodule update --recursive --remote
The previous command will set the current branch to a detached HEAD. Set it back to master by:
git submodule foreach git checkout master
Fast-forward to the latest commit
git submodule foreach git pull origin master
