Before, I used git locally without using .gitignore Afterwards, I created an .gitignore file, and write all unnecessary files in it. When I push them to git repo, fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly error appears.
I dont want to push ignore files, but, somehow git tries to push them to repo.
Please help me, what is my fault? Thanks
GitHub has a nice article on this. You basically want to remove the files from Git history, but not from the file system.
If your file was pushed in your last commit, you can do:
git rm --cached path/to/your/big/file
git commit --amend -CHEAD
git push
If not, they recommend using BFG–a tool for cleaning up repositories (alternative to git-filter-branch):
bfg --strip-blobs-bigger-than 50M
This will remove files bigger than 50M.
