What is check-added-large-files #
The pre-commit hook
check-added-large-files prevent you to commit files that are too large.
Careful: If you have git-lfs installed, lfs files will be ignored.
How to set it up #
To install this hook, open your .pre-commit-config.yaml file and add the
following lines under the repos key:
- repo: https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit-hooks
rev: v4.4.0 # Use the version you want
hooks:
- id: check-added-large-files
args: ["--maxkb=2000"]
You may have noticed the args key. This is where you you can configure the
hook.
In the example, I set up a maximum file size of 2MB. It could be removed if
you want the default value, which is 500kB.
