How we shrunk our Javascript monorepo git size by 94%
We really did this! We work in a very large Javascript monorepo at Microsoft we colloquially call 1JS. Using some new changes to the git client it went from 178GB to 5GB.
Hasnain says:
178GB -> 5GB is insane
“If you work in a large-ish scale monorepo, and you have CHANGELOG.md or really any file that has a relatively long-ish name (>16 characters) which repeatedly gets updated, you may want to keep your eyes on this path walk stuff.”
