I have no idea why you are not able to upload these files, but you
shouldn't be uploading cache files or compiled python modules to you git
repository anyway.

If you have any of these files in your local git repository, remove them
using "git rm".

Something like:

# find -name __pycache__ -exec git rm -r {} \;

And:

# find -name *.pyc -exec git rm {} \;

Ought to do it.

Then commit these changes with something like:

# git commit -m "Remove cache and object files from repository"

Finally add cache and compiled object files to you .gitignore. Something
like:

*.pyc
__pycache__

And try to push your changes again.

Be aware that I have not actually tested any of these commands, so
please be careful before blindly executing them.

Hope that helps a bit.

Kind regards,

Kasper Laudrup
