Because I wanted to figure out how to use git, and because I was entrenched, respectively. Now I have three choices:

  • Keep paying Github forever to keep my repos private.
  • Learn how to export an LFS repo.
  • Announce that I'm open-sourcing the Frog Fractions series in order to save $9/month.

P.S. I learned nothing about git until I started using it on a project with 5+ programmers on it.

Are github gitting rid of private repos for free accounts? I haven’t heard anything about it aside from this. Also wouldn’t be surprised if this is a totally different issue altogether

i wasn't able to find an answer to #2 until i randomly stumbled on it one day. git lfs migrate export --everything --include='*' is one option that can get you a massive non-LFS git repo suitable for chucking in an archive you never look at, at the cost of rewriting all history, which is obnoxious
