The reviewed .deb files ship inside the repository so the installing device downloads nothing, but a full Ubuntu dependency closure is roughly 900 MB of binaries. Committing them as ordinary blobs would put that weight into every clone of the project's history. Track *.deb through Git LFS instead: the working tree keeps the real files (the installer reads them from disk unchanged) while the history stores pointers. Contributors need `git lfs install` once. Note the GitHub storage and bandwidth quotas are not verified here -- a set this size is close to the free tier's storage allowance and every clone spends bandwidth.
