GH001: Large files detected. You may want to try Git Large File Storage

I commit the some file and it says 

remote: error: File models/cifar10_gradcam.h5 is 174.65 MB; this exceeds GitHub's file size limit of 100.00 MB

but I already commit it. how should I reset this commit and add this file to gitignore and recommit?


after I do 

$ git reset --soft HEAD~1

and re push

! [rejected] master -> master (non-fast-forward) error: failed to push some refs to 'https://github.com/SlowMonk/XAI.git' hint: Updates were rejected because the tip of your current branch is behind hint: its remote counterpart. Integrate the remote changes (e.g. hint: 'git pull ...') before pushing again. hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.

WARNING: You should have your repo be updated to lastest.

I know this is probably wrong but this has helped me.

Situation: I tried to upload a file that is over 100MB (let's call it file_a), I then delete file_a and tries to add, commit and push again. Git still say that file_a is over 100MB. I then try first:

git --reset HEAD~1

(I tried multiple times, with the number increased)

When I use push again, git bash prompted me that my index is behind and I need to pull the newest. I then try:

git pull my-repo-url

After that, I use the normal add, commit and push again. And it worked.

This worked for me:

git filter-branch -f --index-filter 'git rm --cached --ignore-unmatch filename'

Run that and then push. Of course you should replace "filename" with the name of your file.

I found this code on medium

You should use Git Large File Storage (git-lfs) as you see your console message. I try to explain how you should use git-lfs in your project.

Firstly install git-lfs in your homebrew(linux-Mac)

brew install git-lfs

git lfs install //Git LFS initialized.

git lfs track "*.mp4" //Specify file types to track.

git add . //Add all changes

git commit -m "first commit" git branch -M main git remote add origin yourgithupprojecturl.git git push -u origin main

Suppose the current status is that you've just run git reset --soft HEAD~1.

Remove the file from the index,

git rm --cached models/cifar10_gradcam.h5

Add the file path to gitignore, supposing it's .gitignore

echo "models/cifar10_gradcam.h5" >> .gitignore
git add .gitignore

Commit the changes,

git commit

Update the local branch before the push,

git pull origin -r master

Push the new commit(s),

git push origin master
