I would like to announce a call of testing for the BFG Repo-Cleaner snap. BFG Repo-Cleaner is a simpler, faster alternative to git-filter-branch
for cleansing bad data out of your Git repository history.
How to install
or, in a terminal:
# Install the snap #
sudo snap install --channel=beta bfg-repo-cleaner
# Connect the snap to optional security confinement interfaces #
## For accessing files under /media ##
sudo snap connect bfg-repo-cleaner:removable-media
# Launch the application #
bfg
snap run bfg # If you have another existing installation
What to test
- Can you properly launch the application?
- Do you notice any problems during running the application?
How to contribute
Here’s the source repository of the snap: https://github.com/Lin-Buo-Ren/bfg-snap
