Hi Peff, I would like to register to the contributor summit :-) --- As I am writing you, I thought I could ask you a question: "git verify-pack" tells me the "size-in-packfile" which is kind of the "real" size of a file in a Git repo. Are you aware of a way to get this number via the GitHub API? We have written a GitHub bot (soon to be open sourced!) that warns about large files. We query the file size via Repo Content API [1]. Largish text files usually compress well and therefore our bot generates false positive warnings. I assume it is not possible to query "size-in-packfile" via GitHub API as this is kind of an internal and not necessarily stable number. But I thought maybe you happen to know some way! Thanks, Lars [1] https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/contents/#get-content PS: In my last email I asked you about AsciiDoc rendering via *.adoc extension on GitHub. Your argument that Git has custom AsciiDoc configs and attributes convinced me to not propose that idea on the list. > On 19 Jan 2018, at 01:10, Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Git Merge 2018 is happening on March 8th; there will be a Contributor's > Summit the day before.
