Separate the data dir into it's own repo

[davidski]

Splitting the data directory out into it's own repo would allow clone operations to run a lot faster. Current repo is 279MB in size. 😬

Not a bad idea, but I am not sure how to best do that though. I will ask some Github friends what they suggest.

[alexcpsec]

I though a little bit about this and I think the best way to go is:

• Create a new Repository called tiq-test-Summer2014 where I will have all the data and the R Markdown file for the talks we did.
• This repository (tiq-test) will have the base functions for the test (which I expect to become a R package) and just be code.
• Also, as I have new Markdowns for talks and stuff like that, I'll just create new repos that use the tiq-test repo.

@davidski What do you think?

[davidski]

Definitely like having tiq-test as the foundation for a R package, sans the data. That definitely solves my oh-my-gosh-why-is-US-broadband-so-bad problem. 😉

Cool, will get to it as v0.1.2 :)

This pull request cleans it up and removes the data, but it will still be in the git history. It seems removing it is a bit traumatic. I will research a bit further on this.

Thanks, @alexcpsec! FYI, for clearing up the history, I recently used the steps detailed in this Stackoverflow discussion to do a similar bit of git surgery.

[alexcpsec]

Yeah, I will look into that, Thanks!

All right! Fixed! This is a good reference for this - https://help.github.com/articles/remove-sensitive-data
