Git advice of the day: don't check in large files (such as images), except
when they are not huge and hardly ever changed (why put them under version
control then?), or if they change, only small portions of the file change
(such as append-only with small amendments). The latter allows the delta
compression of the Git objects to keep the trouble to a minimum.

The problem with big files is that they have to be cloned with the
repository and each version of the large file sticks around in the
repository forever. Even if you decide to "delete" the file from the tree
later.

Kind regards,
Jakob
