| If you like to work with your *nix shell even under Windows, you'll | |
| likely use the git-bash provided by msysgit a lot. | |
| A problem might be, that you don't have your tools in the PATH of that | |
| shell and therefore can't use them. Those tools might be on the same | |
| USB-drive as the git-shell, so you would have to adjust the PATH | |
| (if you're allowed to) every time the drive-letter changes. |

This Python script can be used as a "pre-commit"-hook, to check if a huge binary file got accidentally added to the staging area (and is about to be committed). Because deleting those afterwards is a huge pain in the ass...

| -- DESCRIPTION -- | |
| If you accidentally commit a huge file, you have a problem. Sure, you can remove it from the working tree and commit, | |
| but the file is still reachable from your history and therefore causes every clone to be as huge as the commented | |
| binary file. | |
| Fixing this can be very ugly, time consuming and might not even work as you wish. Luckily, this script can protect | |
| you from committing such monsters in the first place. | |
| It looks through the staged files (the ones that are added with the "git add"-command) and checks for their file-size. | |
| If they are larger then the given size, the commit is aborted and you get a message telling you what file takes so |
