Github uploading file count limit

This is a simple question.

Is there a way to increase github uploading file count in web ui?

Currently github limit uploading more than 100 at a time. So it is hard to upload a folder containing 100+ files. Even files are tiny like icons, this limit applies.

I was expecting that github will be more sophisticated.

Solution

  • I'm not aware of any such way to bypass the web UI limit. In general, the web UI is designed for very small, quick edits, and is not intended to be a substitute for committing things using Git and a clone of the repository.

    If you want to add lots of files, you can clone the repository with git clone, then change into the clone, copy the files where you want them, and do git add with the new files. Once you're done, you can use git push to push your changes up into the GitHub repository.
