    🦉 ML Experiments and Data Management with Git

  • Git is definitely useful for version controlling all your scripts. For your textures and binary objects you can save it in text format so you can commit them, or you could use DVC!

DVC you can simply use your cloud service as the storage therefore you are not limited and its easier to manage as you have more control. It can feel cumbersome at first since you have your own dvc add pull push commands and it creates additional files with .dvc extension as pointers, but you get used to it! Its mainly used for machine learning projects but can be used here as well! So try it out

  • git-lfs

    Git extension for versioning large files
