Remove outputs from Jupyter notebooks from Francois Maillet

This gist shows how to commit jupyter notebooks without output to git while keeping the notebooks outputs intact locally:

1. Add a filter to git config by running the following command in bash inside the repo:

   git config filter.strip-notebook-output.clean 'jupyter nbconvert --ClearOutputPreprocessor.enabled=True --to=notebook --stdin --stdout --log-level=ERROR'
   

2. Create a .gitattributes file inside the directory with the notebooks

3. Add the following to that file:

   *.ipynb filter=strip-notebook-output
   

After that, commit to git as usual. The notebook output will be stripped out in git commits, but it will remain unchanged locally.
