I would suggest removing artwork that is past 3 years old. Anything documenting old events, old marketing strategies and old social media artwork.
It's not because it's old than you don't need it. FithLeg fonts, basics colors etc
What would have been cool, is the meta-git repository, which contain differents branches, So someone wanting only social media would have check out only a small part.>> I like this idea! Maybe we can follow coolo's model. Although I don't know how to do it.
But this need a bit of structure. I like the way coolo setup the branding
Any volunteers? I volunteer myself to give info on a particular file to see how we can catalogue it.
I will try to come up with a structure.

Since there have been no corrections yet to my last cleanup on git, I will now remove the extra space from my hard disk. I was keeping a copy of the removed items just in case we needed something back.
Maybe we can come up with a diagram showing the different branches for artwork and then propose a structure. What you think Henne? :D
Sweety, git is a version control system. Removing files from it does NOT save space, nor does it remove the file. You can not remove files from git, it will simply move them to the history (the .git directory in the home of your git repo checkout). You never loose history, that is the whole idea behind a BCS. So removing things to save space is a big waste of time: it makes the repository 0,0% smaller. Actually, it makes it bigger, as it has to store the fact that you tried to remove a file. Once you have checked something in, it will eat space until the end of time (or you remove the repository and start a new one). Of course people COULD check out a repo without its history: git clone --depth 1 But I doubt many people know and do that. Hugs, J
