Summary
GitHub is introducing warnings for users who push large files to their repositories, addressing Git's inefficiency with handling large binary files and suggesting alternative methods for managing them. The platform will enforce these guidelines by rejecting pushes that add or modify files exceeding its set hard limit. Users are encouraged to refer to the Help article for detailed information on Git’s technical constraints and the specific file size limits.
