Description: Simple way to handle fat files without committing them to git
Checking large binary files into a source repository (Git or otherwise) is a
bad idea because repository size quickly becomes unreasonable. Even if the
instantaneous working tree stays manageable, preserving repository integrity
requires all binary files in the entire project history, which given the
typically poor compression of binary diffs, implies that the repository size
will become impractically large. Some people recommend checking binaries into
different repositories or even not versioning them at all, but these are not
satisfying solutions for most workflows.
