Description

The package nerf-fonts includes a lot of files:

$ du -sh ajax/libs/nerd-fonts/*
1.1G    ajax/libs/nerd-fonts/0.5.1
1.3G    ajax/libs/nerd-fonts/0.6.0
1.3G    ajax/libs/nerd-fonts/0.6.1
1.7G    ajax/libs/nerd-fonts/0.7.0
3.4G    ajax/libs/nerd-fonts/0.8.0
570M    ajax/libs/nerd-fonts/1.0.0
529M    ajax/libs/nerd-fonts/1.1.0
584M    ajax/libs/nerd-fonts/1.2.0
3.5G    ajax/libs/nerd-fonts/2.0.0
4.0G    ajax/libs/nerd-fonts/2.1.0

A version is up to 4GB which is also the same of the commit. GitHub don't accept that.

I'm removing the package for now. No versions were commit to the repo yet.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the ajax/libs/nerd-fonts paths and the package configuration that introduced them. Confirm whether any versions were committed, then determine whether the package can be removed without leaving references behind; done means the oversized package is no longer included in the repository.
