i have 6 commits on my repo and whenever I push I get an error. I think it has to do with it being a unity project but i don't know.

N really sure what else to put here. enter image description here

That might be because of the large size of the commits you are pushing:

Writing objects: 100%... 2,05GB

See "Working with large files and repositories":

we don’t allow pushes over 2GB. I

You might have to consider Git LFS for such large files.

  • can i have a quick rundown how to use it? command line says lfs is not a command and i ran the exe download but i dont see much – Futuremappermydud Jun 28 '20 at 00:08
  • @Futuremappermydud https://git-lfs.github.com/ should give you a quick rundown on how to use it, starting with the installation step (`git lfs install`). But check first it is the issue: do you have large files? Or are you simply pushing too many commits whose combined size it too important? – VonC Jun 28 '20 at 00:10
  • sorry for semi late reply i think im pushing alot of files/commits who have a slight large size anyway i could bring all the changes from those commits back and remove them so i can choose what too leave out? like i can remove un needed library files – Futuremappermydud Jun 28 '20 at 00:39
  • @Futuremappermydud Ideally, if you don't have too many commits, you would `git reset` to an old one (https://stackoverflow.com/a/53878312/6309), modify `.gitignore` to ignore the libraries/large files, add, and recreate your commits you were trying to push (this time without large files) – VonC Jun 28 '20 at 00:46
  • thats the thing.... i have 6 commits with quite a large sum of stuff done – Futuremappermydud Jun 28 '20 at 00:49
  • @Futuremappermydud Then use https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo which can delete large files from old commits. – VonC Jun 28 '20 at 00:54
