What to do if project size is larger than 1 GB? Is uploading it to GitHub obligatory?

We are planning on using Unreal Engine for our project, but as far as I know projects in UE very often exceed 1 GB in size (we were thinking about using Diversion for source control because it gives you 100 GB of storage for free). And I'm pretty sure Git LFS only allows 1 GB of storage for free. What do we do in case that happens? Is uploading everything in the project to GitHub really necessary?
We'd like to solve this issue without paying for any subscriptions. Any help would be appreciated.

You don't need to upload everything. Just the code. Many people would not even upload assets as they might be under some license.
Look up for git ignore file for UE and add it to your repo. This should filter out most of the stuff that you don't need to upload for sure.
