如何在 GitHub 上保留最新版本的二进制文件而不完全跟踪它们？

Question

I'd like to keep the newest version of some binary files (ie pdf, jpg, png) up to date on my GitHub via the git add / commit / push workflow that I know. But I have no need for tracking their history, since these files are generated from the remaining code.

I could ignore tracking these file-types, then force remove and add when pushing, but that seems inefficient. How do I best handle this?

Answer 1

You could:

• create and push a tag
• associate to that tag a release, a zip archive composed of those files.

That way, you can associate a set of files to a specific version of your code.

See " Managing releases in a repository " from GitHub.
