Large Files in Git

See original GitHub issue

CDK Folks – new repo pulls are taking longer. I did a quick git history search and it appears the docs are sort of bulky

that’s a commit sha on the left.

I prefer not to store those large files in the code repo.

Okay, we have aws-cdk-docs ready for this. Let’s start planning for this change, probably in a month or so:

  • Copy content from aws-cdk#gh-pages
  • Decide if we still want to maintain old versions. Seems like that’s going to be an issue long term. Maybe we can just preserve X last versions
  • Figure out what to do with redirects from the old site. We already have lots of links pointing to it. Maybe we should get a domain? Or expedite moving to the AWS docs site instead. At any rate, we are kind of screwed.

Our next documentation release will be done using aws-delivlib and should address the issue. Resolving right away.
