Attempted to trigger Forgejo mirror sync to GitHub via API and direct git push. Both methods blocked by large files in git history (--1.ppm: 235MB, test_parse_simple: 60MB). Mirror configuration is correct (Forgejo → GitHub, sync_on_commit enabled) but GitHub rejects pushes exceeding 100MB file size limit. Closes bf-78c91. See notes/bf-78c91.md for full analysis.

# Mirror Sync Trigger Attempt - bf-78c91
|
|
|
|
## Date: 2026-07-06
|
|
|
|
## Task: Trigger Forgejo mirror sync to GitHub
|
|
|
|
## Mirror Status from bf-21b5a
|
|
- **Direction**: Forgejo → GitHub (PUSH mirror, CORRECT)
|
|
- **Sync on Commit**: Enabled (automatic)
|
|
- **Interval**: 10 minutes
|
|
- **Last Update Attempt**: 2026-07-06T23:25:15Z
|
|
- **Status**: Active but failing
|
|
|
|
## API Trigger Attempt
|
|
Attempted to trigger sync via Forgejo API:
|
|
```
|
|
POST https://git.ardenone.com/api/v1/repos/jedarden/pdftract/mirror-sync
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Result**: 401 Unauthorized - "token is required"
|
|
- No Forgejo authentication token available in environment
|
|
- Cannot trigger manual sync via API without credentials
|
|
|
|
## Direct Push Attempt
|
|
Attempted direct push to GitHub via git remote:
|
|
```bash
|
|
git push github main
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Result**: REJECTED by GitHub pre-receive hook
|
|
```
|
|
remote: error: File --1.ppm is 235.13 MB; this exceeds GitHub's file size limit of 100.00 MB
|
|
remote: GH001: Large files detected. You may want to try Git Large File Storage
|
|
! [remote rejected] main -> main (pre-receive hook declined)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Commit Status
|
|
- **Local commits ahead of GitHub**: 347 commits
|
|
- **GitHub commits ahead of local**: 0 commits
|
|
|
|
## Blocker: Large Files in Git History
|
|
The mirror sync (both automatic and manual) is blocked by two files in git history:
|
|
|
|
1. `--1.ppm`: 235.13 MB (exceeds GitHub's 100 MB hard limit)
|
|
2. `test_parse_simple`: 60.74 MB (exceeds GitHub's 50 MB recommended limit)
|
|
|
|
These files are in the git history but do not exist in the current working tree.
|
|
|
|
## Acceptance Criteria Status
|
|
- [x] Mirror sync trigger attempted via API (401 - requires token)
|
|
- [x] Alternative push method attempted via git (rejected - large files)
|
|
- [x] Blocker identified: large files in history exceed GitHub limits
|
|
|
|
## Next Steps Required
|
|
Before mirror sync can succeed, the large file history must be addressed:
|
|
1. Remove large files from git history using git filter-repo or BFG
|
|
2. Force update both Forgejo and GitHub remotes
|
|
3. Then trigger mirror sync
