+## About gitignore
+
+If your data is too large you might wanna consider adding your the folder where your data live to the `gitignore` file. This way, Git will not track that file. GitHub has a size limit to 100 mb. This mean your will not be able to push files over that limit. This is when the `gitignore` comes handy.
