Github apparently has a limit on pushes to personal accounts that no file
may be larger than 100mb. When I try to push a branch to my personal clone
of hive, I get:

rockfleet:hive owen$ git push omalley master:hive-11890

This makes it very difficult to work with. Can we do something else with
the file? If not, can we store it with the git large file storage as
suggested in the error message?
