I’m using eclipse for html5, js & css3.
On starting a new project, eclipse offered to start it using boilerplate. After a little research, it seemed a good thing to try. But on zipping the project up to send to a tester, I found I had a small app with a very large 4mb footprint…
I’ve found the culprit in myProject/.git/objects/pack
the file is
pack-8bbfc27fb4f49b9b8418123879a14af5e5dd861c.pack and is 3.8mb
Any ideas what this is for? Is it something eclipse has added?
Cheers
The
.gitdirectory is only used by the Git version control system. We use Git – as many other open source projects do – to manage the source code of the project.
