Hi Adam,
I also got this problem, and I would like some input from Bioc Core
Team. I worked around it by writing a minimal vignette in the main
branch. Then I made a documentation branch, where I have the same code
as in main branch, but with more elaborate vignettes used to build a
pkgdown website. I made a rule for myself that I can only merge from the
main or devel branch to the documentation branch but not the other way
round. I would switch branch when I find a bug or want a new feature
while writing the vignettes. You can see the main branch here:
https://github.com/pachterlab/voyager/tree/main The documentation branch
here: https://github.com/pachterlab/voyager/tree/documentation
I kind of wonder if the 5 MB rule is outdated in the age of increasing
computer power and internet speed. A jpeg photo can easily exceed 5 MB.
I also wonder if this rule is deliberately kept for good reasons, like
to make R more inclusive to disadvantaged people with limited internet
services.
Regards,
Lambda
