Hi Joseph,
When you run 'R CMD build' you should get a release tarball, which shouldn't
contain this .git folder. If you perform the 'R CMD check' on the tarball, you
shouldn't get this warning. If you still get the warning, or have other files
that generate this warning, then you could try to add them to a '.Rbuildignore'
file.
I hope this helps,
Freek Manders

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
