If we can go up to 1.7GB, then that's not a problem. There could also be a simple script setup to clone tbb-bin [6] if GitHub does start to enforce the limit on our repo, or we could start looking at external sources. My ideal is that someone can just use "git clone" and have a working mirror, so I'd prefer for the script to be a backup plan.
Is tbb-bin currently updated by a script, or is everything done manually?
Everything is done manually. If this gets used as the source for mirror downloads, I'd likely remove the version numbers (with a mention in the readme) so that out-of-date pages will continue to link to working bundles. And right now I blow away the repo entirely instead of updating it, but I can just set up a different process to redact the old bundle commits and add new ones. (Rather than have git store all the outdated bundles, which could get problematic when cloning). ~Griffin
