Hello, I am currently maintaining a Linux kernel with a custom configuration in AUR [1] and when I tried to migrate it to AUR4 today, "git push" failed with:
remote: error: The following error occurred when parsing commit remote: error: 94ed5186e25ac1d459ae13d3ab0fbccc401ff225: remote: error: maximum blob size (100kB) exceeded remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master Indeed, in base linux package [2], the files config and config.x86_64 are larger than 100 kB (they are approx. 179 kB), so I need some kind of trick to be able to move to AUR4 (e.g. storing the kernel config on GitHub). It may be the reason why no custom kernel has yet moved to AUR4 (I tried to find some from the results of a search with category "kernels" keywords "linux" [3] in AUR4 without any success). How are maintainers supposed to deal with such packages which are derived from official packages that contains files too big to fit AUR4 requirements? I have several workarounds in mind (compressing config files, storing them somewhere else...) but would like to know which would be the best one, so that for example all the custom kernel ultimately use the same way to store their configuration files.
