After upgrading from Angular 12 to 13, cache is too large for Github

Asked 2022-Mar-28 at 18:10

I recently upgraded all of my dependencies in package.json to the latest. I went from Angular 12.2.0 to 13.0.1 and github is now rejecting my push with the following file size error. Is there some setting I need to define in angular.json build profile that will help minimize these cache file sizes?

Make sure your .gitignore is in the parent folder of .angular.
In that .gitignore file, a simple .angular/cache/ should be enough to ignore that subfolder content.

QUESTION

Should I migrate local history when switching to Git LFS after hundreds of commits?

Asked 2022-Mar-27 at 09:55

I have a git repository (a Godot game project using GDScript) that I've been working on for quite a while and has about a thousand commits, pushed to GitHub.

I'm to start adding binary assets like image or sound files with Git LFS.

Looking at the git-lfs-migrate docs I should probably migrate the local history to have some already existing png files converted too. Now, this looks like a significant change and I don't insist on shooting myself in the foot, so I'd like to know what is the best practice for this type of repository migration.

I'm the only one working on this repository so even sacrileges like force pushing is acceptable to me, as long as I don't lose my code and can convert my large files.

Clarification: Primarily I'm unsure about the possible consequences of migrating the local history or going without rewriting local history. Not sure what's the pros and cons are for these choices.

The reason why I'm considering Git LFS is that so far I've only been editing text files, but now I'm about to add a number of large binaries (images, sounds, data files), which will change during development, so not using LFS would be a waste. Ideally I'd only like to download the latest binaries when I'm cloning the repository to my various test environments.

Finally I did not migrate anything, just installed git-lfs, then pushed the changes to the remote repository on GitHub. When I cloned the repository on my 2 other computers (a Linux and a Mac), not forgetting to install git-lfs there too, on both cases I received a weird error, complaining about "smudge filter lfs failed".

This SO answer was the solution: https://stackoverflow.com/a/48882513/63377

Essentially LFS didn't have a URL set and it was too timid to tell me. I had to run git config lfs.url $(git config remote.WHATEVER-MY-LFS-REMOTE-NAME-IS.url), then do another git pull, and it all seems to be working.

ANSWER

Use the repository files API. No special handling is needed for files that happen to use LFS. It's simply an HTTPS request to the endpoint.

You've already requested the information which should be contained in pkgResult. The content of the file is in the response payload as content encoded in base64.

Just extract the content field from the deserialized JSON and base64 decode it to get the contents of the file.

Git to BitBucket migration issues with LFS

Asked 2022-Mar-07 at 19:48

We migrated a repository from a Gitea server to BitBucket. When we try to clone via HTTPS we get the following error:

Error downloading object: : Smudge error: Error downloading : Object does not exist on the server: [404] Object does not exist on the server.

I followed this SO answer and I can clone, but when I do the git lfs pull I get a bunch of

[404] Object does not exist

I then tried setting the lfs.url value as in this answer and then a git lfs pull results in

Repository or object not found: /objects/batch, Check that it exists and that you have proper access to it.

After that, I saw some posts about issues with LFS and HTTPS so I tried cloning with SSH. (created new SSH key, added it to BitBucket, etc) This resulted in

error: external filter 'git-lfs filter-process' failed, fatal: : smudge filter lfs failed, warning: Clone succeeded , but checkout failed.

I then tried running git lfs install --skip-smudge and cloning again via SSH. This worked, again, but the files are not accessible and when I run git lfs pull now I get the following message multiple times:

batch request: git@bitbucket.org: Permission denied (publickey).: exit status 255

How do I fix this?

Answered 2022-Mar-07 at 19:48

It appears Bitbucket's import tool does not import LFS objects. I ended up following the steps here to fix the problem (note that I updated step 9 to include origin to fix an error).

First, create new a repo on Bitbucket and take note of the URL (or SSH endpoint) of the new repo. (I did not do this as I was fixing a repo I had already created)
In a terminal window, clone the existing project from GitHub:

ANSWER

Answered 2022-Feb-22 at 17:36

If you're using Git for Windows 2.34 or later, then this is already fixed, and the warning here is no longer accurate. It's been disabled in newer versions of Git LFS when using Git for Windows 2.34 or newer. You can just ignore it if you have an updated version of Git.

Note that this is a Git problem; Git LFS handles these just fine, and any reasonably recent version should work with a suitably updated Git. Additionally, Git on Unix has never had this problem and should work just fine.

Goal: git checkout -b newBranchName remotes/branchForRemote/main to actually go into newBranchName

What you're doing is about right. You just forgot a git fetch --all or git fetch . So basically:

git clone https://github.com/
git remote add opensource
git fetch opensource
git checkout -b opensource/master

Without git fetch, your git doesn't know which files/branches/tags your open source remote has in the first place.
