All source code hosting services have size limits. I am wondering that does that mean my files can be up to that size — or that the repository is limited to that size? Say I have 5 files of 100 kB, if I keep changing them and committing, will the repo size get larger?
For example, Github.com smallest plan has a limit of 0.30 GB, and my project is 50 MB in size — will I exceed this limit with a lot of revisions?
The repo size gets larger with every commit. But git compresses new files. Your repo does not grow 100kb with a new or changed 100kB file.
I’ve got a repo with >4000 revisions – it’s still smaller than the content itself. 200MB Repo, 250MB files.
