Curious. This script[1] lists the blobs in your repo, which includes deleted files. It seems the deleted resources directory takes up 364MB. That isn't tiny, but it isn't supermassive either.

I wonder if GitHub support would be helpful. I don't know if asking them to do a 're-pack' would be beneficial.

P.S. thanks for open sourcing this!

When I removed an old commited and then removed node_modules folder, I had to do a git filter-branch and a force push; it's doable for your own projects if you don't object to changing the history a bit.
