To whom it may concern:

I am Joseph, writing on behalf of the developers of 
proActiv<https://github.com/GoekeLab/proActiv>, a package used to infer 
promoter activity from RNA-seq data.
We are in the process of preparing the package for Biconductor submission. So 
far, the package has cleared R CMD check with no errors or warnings, and 
cleared R CMD BiocCheck with no errors. However, we're still getting one 
warning from R CMD BiocCheck regarding individual file size. In particular, we 
have a couple of offending files (.bed, .rda), one of them being a git pack 
object (.pack).
We have followed the suggested pipeline to remove large files with BFG 
Repo-cleaner:

> git clone --mirror https://github.com/GoekeLab/proActiv.git


> java -jar bfg-1.13.0.jar --strip-blobs-bigger-than 5M --no-blob-protection 
> proActiv.git

> cd proActiv.git

> git reflog expire --expire=now --all && git gc --prune=now --aggressive

This removes the individual files (e.g. .bed, .rda) in commit history that were 
bigger than the stipulated 5M limit, as expected.
However, cloning the package locally from the bare repository and running R CMD 
BiocCheck on it still throws the same warning, but with the git pack object as 
the only offending file.
How should one go about dealing with hidden git pack objects so that the 
Bioconductor checks can be passed successfully?

Thanks,
Joseph
