git freezing at push while compressing objects
git, git-commit, git-push, github
Solution
@torek was correct, "It's not actually frozen, it's just going to take a very long time to compress that giant object."
Problem
hi I'm using Github to push some files from my local server to my Github repository. I accidentally included a 500Mb video file in the commit and I think this totally screwed up the `add/commit/push`. Specifically, my command stalls at the `push` like this: ``` git push -u myGithubRepository master Counting objects: 52, done. Delta compression using up to 4 threads. Compressing objects: 97% (36/37) ``` It's been many hours and is still stuck. I'd like to commit all the other changes I made so I don't want to revert back to what's on my Github repository. I just want to resolve this conflict. I'm a Git novice so please take it easy on me. thanks, tim
