The pack is 2.65 GB. HEAD holds 1.09 GB across 3,664 images; the rest is superseded and deleted blobs.
The June audit recommended adding src/images/Portfolios/** to .gitignore and purging. That would take every gallery offline — jsDelivr serves the images straight from this repo at @main (useManifest.ts:5). The bloat is load-bearing, which is why the item never moved.
Nothing pins a commit SHA — every consumer uses @main or @manifests-cdn — so history can be rewritten provided the files still exist at HEAD.
Approach: git filter-repo --path src/images/Portfolios --invert-paths, then re-add the current images in one commit. History keeps exactly one version of each image; HEAD stays byte-identical, so jsDelivr keeps serving.
- Recompress the oversized originals first, so the re-add commit contains fixed files
- Full mirror backup —
filter-repo needs --force on an existing checkout
git filter-repo --analyze to confirm before rewriting- Rewrite, re-add,
git gc --aggressive --prune=now, verify the HEAD tree hash is unchanged
- Coordinate the force-push: it invalidates open PRs and every clone must be re-cloned
- Verify jsDelivr immediately after, using its purge endpoint rather than waiting for branch caches
- Add
*.drive-stuck and desktop.ini to .gitignore (both tracked today); delete the stale .git-rewrite/
Remote size will not drop until GitHub's own GC runs.
