No that was all the communication I had with GitHub and I'm not aware of others of having a conversation with GitHub. From that conversation I reached the same conclusion as esr, they don't want repositories larger than 1 GB. I also would have preferred GitHub and I think they offer a great free service. But it is their service and their rules, which I think we should respect. -- Regards, Mark de Wever aka Mordante/SkeletonCrew _______________________________________________ Wesnoth-dev mailing list Wesnoth-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/wesnoth-dev
