Subject: 500Mb file erroneously commited
Date: Mon, 6 Jun 2011 07:43:20 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <loom.20110606T093627-918@post.gmane.org> (raw)

Hello,

we're using CVS to store some sources, but for some big projects I'm considering
to use git. Last week it has happened that one collegue erroneously commited one
big file, 500Mb the file only. To avoid to have this file in the repository
we've deleted the history file in the CVS repository, the one with ,v, this has
been easy as each file has its own history. Would it be possible to do the same
with git, or there's no possibility to delete a 500Mb file erroneously commited? 

Many thanks

Best regards

Bartolomeo
