Large files — quick notes
| Content | Store in |
|---|---|
| Source | Git |
| Dependencies | Azure Artifacts |
| Large binaries that change often | Git LFS |
- Binaries don't delta well → near-full copy per version, forever.
- LFS stores a pointer in Git; content lives outside and is fetched on checkout.
- Adding LFS does not shrink existing history — that needs a rewrite.
- Growing repo → Git LFS, Scalar, or Azure Artifacts.
