BFG Repo-Cleaner

This is an extremely useful tool for when you need to remove big files from a repo's Git history or when you need to remove passwords and other private data from all commits remote and local.

Note: if you use --replace-text function to specify secret strings and their replacements, each line in this file should not have any spaces surrounding ==>. This is important, replacement does not work otherwise.

This tool worked great the few times I have used it.
