So I had my external HD connected so thought I'd back up my code...

But real into a problem... The git repo.... Currently copying 300,000 files... For just 10 projects...

    @RhysOC no, not sure why... Seems maybe it was compiled code. But shit Android programs/grunt then needs so many files to compile?

    @billgates compiled software in Git, what could go wrong?

    500000 files later...

    @RhysOC not exactly, the Android project itself had a huge amount of compiled files so wasnt the git folder that was the issue

    @billgates I know, I mean having compiled code as part of the project folder and not being in the gitignore.
