I am running a Wordpress site on OpenShift that has an uploaded folder size of about 200mbs. This should be well under the limits for the free account, however, it appears to copy it a few times in order to deploy giving me a du like this...
216K php
44M mysql
222M git
246M app-deployments
268M app-root
Side Note
Because my uploads are so large and change a lot I am "checking in" my uploads by adding it to .openshift/uploads and adding the following to my deploy.
# linked directly to Git in order to cut down on space.
ln -sf ${OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR}uploads ${OPENSHIFT_REPO_DIR}.openshift/uploads
Back to the core problem
Is there something else I can add/configure to lower the amount of duplicate files more?
