git-lfs is your friend. And supported natively by GitHub.
Thanks but it seems like a highly undesirable soloution to me. Firstly it seems to require mangling your git repo. That is going to make it at best a PITA to use with things like dgit. Secondly AIUI git-lfs stores every version of the file seperately. If so then one would very quickly blow through the default storage and bandwidth limitations for githubs lfs offering.

The packages are imported into git using dgit. However I have discovered that this is not possible for all packages. In particular github rejects files over 100 megabytes and the current libreoffice package has a 107 megabyte (upstream) ChangeLog in it. You might want to bear this in mind when considering packaging workflows that may involve github. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ vcs-pkg-discuss mailing list vcs-pkg-discuss@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vcs-pkg-discuss -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.
