What a day!!! For what its worth, it turns out this was failing because there was a file over the 100M limit (it would be good if Wappler showed this error or something similar)
I found this out by running the GIT push command from the terminal in Wappler and also in GitHub Desktop.
The file was my postgreSQL log file (i know that it should have been added to gitignore, and i thought id done that, but i hadn’t. It was over 300mb after i big data import i did 6 days ago)
The problem then became the face that i had 6+ local commits that all had this 300+mb file and it was difficult to figure out a way to remove this file from those historical commits.
After trying a number of things, including BFG repo-cleaner, i basically resorted to manually deleting the .git folder in the Wappler project directory, creating a new git repository and pushing to a new remote with my project as is.
This way, i did lose all my historical commits/change history, but that’s no big deal as the project is still being developed.
There were some other errors along the way as Wappler kept crashing as i accidentally opened the 300mb log file at it consumed to much RAM that it kept crashing. This became an issue because every time i opened Wappler, it went straight back to trying to open the file due to its ‘remember last view’. Fixed this issue with a clean delete and re-install of Wappler.
Anyway, all fixed now, back to app development!
Rant over!
