* Branch
I've never fully learnt git before(only search for garbage when meeted with problem), so I recently read [[https://git-scm.com/book][ProGit]].
And I have some good ideas on my repo architecture: I should make use of branch, obviously.

** Idea is:
seperate the source file(org) and the generated files(html, feed.xml)
so I can
*** clearly look at the diff
*** delete the generated files if I want
because those static files are really unecessary and takes much space

** So what
*** use =filter-branch= to remove the huge =feed.xml= in the full history
*** ignore the generated files in the source repo
*** merge the source repo into site repo when I think it's ok
don't remove the source(org) in the site repo,
if build in main and checkout to site, those html will be overwritten
*** +and I will use the same stratagy on my YW sub-website if there's no problem+
I'm testing using CI on YW sub-site before deploying on this precious repo

** Need Advice
+I'm really new to do this. If you have a better idea, or this is somehow useful to you,+
+*contact me, please!*+

* CI
I previously thought of using CI to deploy blog, but I /thought/ it too difficult, so just keep status quo.
But for many times I want to build a [[https://github.com/dongdigua/configs/blob/main/configuration.nix][NixOS]] with [[https://donngdigua.github.io/wayland][wayland]] and lots of other big util(such as clang and metasploit),
if I build it on my machine, it will take up too many spaces and make no use except for building iso.
So it urged me to use a CI, after some [[https://t.bilibili.com/735422465675624481][trying]], I found it not difficult and in fact, very useful!

I can have my huge feed.xml(which contains each of my post) dynamically generated by CI, it will save lots of spaces!
I will [[https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Bundling][bundle]] my entire history mess and put it on release, like previous big change,
then use the Nuclear Option =filter-branch= to delete those generated big files.
