Hi,

This means that BFG cleaner didn't get rid of all the files. You can trace back 
the .pack file to a commit in your git log.

You can follow something like this post on github, 
https://github.com/18F/C2/issues/439 to find which file relates to the .pack 
file you mention.

Best,

Nitesh

    Hi,

    I have recently moved my data to an ExperimentHub package and thus need to 
clean my statistical package's git history. I followed the guides from both the 
Bioconductor help page and BFG cleaner pages:

    https://bioconductor.org/developers/how-to/git/remove-large-data/
    https://rtyley.github.io/bfg-repo-cleaner/

    These appeared to have worked, I set the limit to 5MB and pushed the 
changes. Now when I run the clean-up I get the following message:


    Warning : no large blobs matching criteria found in packfiles - does the 
repo need to be packed?

    So it appears nothing remains over the 5MB size but when I locally run 
BiocCheck() the warning message persists:

    WARNING: The following files are over 5MB in size:      
'.git/objects/pack/pack-bb385fcbe4bf53b933abe467a62cd836461ac322.pack'

    Does anyone have experience dealing with an issue like this? The repository 
is in the following location if anyone is curious:

    Kind regards,
    Alan.
