In the [original repository](https://github.com/google/material-design-icons) when you checkout / using npm install / bower install / ... there are many (many) source svg files that you receive as well. **These file are irrelevant and cause congestion** (especially when using in CI systems) so by removing all files and keeping only the `iconfont` directory (contains the compiled font and css files for use) - we get better usage experience, and better **developer experience**. ![image](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/1287098/14408314/09487f1e-fef8-11e5-83e3-d54438a633b8.png) ### Dear Google, Thanks for the iconfont.
