[CHORE] Trim git history

[evanwporter]

The git history is over 700 mb. This is pretty large. I ran the command:

git rev-list --objects --all --missing=print |
  git cat-file --batch-check='%(objecttype) %(objectname) %(objectsize) %(rest)' |
  sed -n 's/^blob //p' |
  grep -vF --file=<(git ls-tree -r HEAD | awk '{print $3}') |
  sort --numeric-sort --key=2 |
  cut -c 1-12,41- |
  $(command -v gnumfmt || echo numfmt) --field=2 --to=iec-i --suffix=B --padding=7 --round=nearest

Which outputted:

These are all files that are not present in head. So I think trim some of this down. Or maybe it doesn't matter too much.

I agree. But first I want to do the following, because there will be more we can trim from the history:

• Convert all PNG sprites to webp, which take up less space. webp is supported in both webkit and chromium
• Split BoxIcons.png into individual sprites. I originally used it as a spritesheet so it only had to load once, but it takes a noticeable time to load and is still unloaded/reloaded frequently. The individual sprites should also be webp

[evanwporter]

I don’t think png can be converted to webp. PNG stores the pixels while webp stores the strokes

girl you're thinking of SVG

[andrewbenington]

damn, converting the home sprites to webp reduces their total size by about 100MB: https://github.com/andrewbenington/OpenHome/tree/png-to-webp

[evanwporter]

Oh yeah

idk but i can't wait to see the new bundle size!

[andrewbenington]

Trimming the git history like this could get kind of sticky because of people working on their own forks and having local changes that aren't pushed to these branches. If we do this I want to make sure the major PRs in progress are merged first, and that dev is merged into main.

If there's a simple way to re-align local working copies and other forks with a rewritten origin let me know, from what I can tell it would be difficult.

[evanwporter]

yeah its messy af. I remember the last time you did it broke a lot of stuff. But that was when it was just you and me like a few years ago i think
