Do not store binaries in version control system (isohdpfx.bin) #24

Description

@hadrien-toma

What I want

  • I would like to not have a binary (isohdpfx.bin) in version control system
  • I would like to be able to fetch the required binaries on the fly, according to the context (version to fetch for instance)
  • If the official binary isohdpfx.bin does not fit my needs, I would like to be able to rebuild it myself in order to be able to control the involved changes made to it

Why I want

  • Having a binary in a repository always makes us wondering if this binary is malicious, so moving this part in a clean way to show what we do and how we do is a good way to proof the code innocence and good faith to dear users
  • I would like to enhance quality and to improve users adoption of the awesome work done in this repository

Question(s)

  • Do you think it is reasonable/achievable to externalize the fetch of this binary?
