How come this piece of shit slop archive of a website doesnt show how big repos are as in actual size on disk?
I needed 4 maybe 5 files from different folders and I said fuck it i click "code-download zip" how big can it be, went to get breakfast and run some errands. when i came back it was still running for 5 seconds then finished and the whole zip was 48.5 GB. how the fuck is this allowed and why the fuck they allow anyone to upload all sorts of extra garbage in these fuckass repos? i only wanted like 3 source files and 2 XMLs.

isnt't this a CODE sharing website?

Its only meant to feed their AI training machines not actually help anyone share code

If you knew how git works, you'd know it would be meaningless to tell you how much space the remote is storing. Garbage collection will generally run sporadically.

>48.5 GiB repo
Oh you're retarded.

Have an LLM write you a git web front-end that does it better. Open source it so everyone starts using it.
