Compress an SVG error?

See original GitHub issue

I’m getting a CI error on https://github.com/mdn/content/pull/4505 asking me to run --save-compression on and SVG. That’s a bug right?

I would prefer to keep this with the docs. Could we make an exception for SVGs? Or perhaps have a rule that says a file under /uncompressed/ subfolder can exist uncompressed for exceptions?

Mayhaps. Probably not quickly. I think we can start a chat about treating SVGs differently but if you want to get your content PR landed I think it’s best to run the compression now and get CI to pass. Then, we can discuss changing the rules for .svg files. Does that make sense?

I am closing this, as it is not an error but a feature. SVGs are still editable even if compressed, so my justification for not wanting to compress is gone.
