I went to commit to a project of mine and was presented the message that exceeded the limit of the 10Gb project, however, I could not delete a folder and its files in git bash or directly in gitlab. I saw information that when deleting files directly in gitlab automatically the folder will be deleted, but I have over 200 files inside the folder to delete, I want to delete the folders that are above the limit allowed by git.
Message from GIT:
remote: Gitlab: Your push has been Rejected, because this Repository has exceeded its size limit of 10 GB by 33 MB. Please contact your Gitlab Administrator for more information.
I understand the problem, but what would be the question? How can we help?

these files are necessary for the operation of the application? Add this folder in the file
.gitignorewould be a solution for you?– Danizavtz
From what I understand you just want to remove the git directory, without removing it from the project: see the command
git rm -r --cached /path, doc: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-rm#Documentation/git-rm.txt--cached– Giovane
I already copied the folder and the files to another location, it is not necessary in the application and can be removed from the project

This answers your question? How to remove a Git file but keep it locally?

Take a look at the Git LFS, a git large like this is not very recommended. Depending on the scenario, I would even consider rewriting the history by placing these large files in LFS.
