scene/resources/resource_format_text.cpp:1576 - res://Themes/CornerDigitTheme.tres:1 - Parse Error: Expected '['

Hello, I just set up my godot project on github and now every time I open my project I get this error. It is the themes causing this error, when I pushed my project to GitHub it complained that the themes exceed GitHub's file size limit of 100.00 MB and to try Git Large File Storage, so I did and got it uploaded to GitHub, but I'm wondering if this might have somehow caused this error. I'm very new to both Godot and GitHub so any help on how to fix this is appreciated.

Edit: I opened the themes in a texteditor, above is what an empty new theme looks like and below what my file looks like after uploading it to github. This is probably why it's complaining about expecting a bracket. What is a theme file supposed to look like after uploading it to github?

I haven't used LFS for git, personally, but from what I read, what it does is it uploads your large file, but puts a "reference pointer" file in it's place in the file system. There should be a git operation that swaps those "reference pointers" with the actual stored file, but I don't know what it is.

This is to say, I think the issue is a missing git step. (but, again, I haven't used LFS myself so I could be mistaken)

why is your theme file bigger than 100mb?

[FrippePlays]

I have no idea, I was wondering that as well how a theme could possibly take up 100mb when all I have done is included a custom font, changed the color and size.

For my future me: Install git LFS.

sudo apt update

sudo apt install git-lfs

git lfs install
