Recommendation for cleaning up local assets after upload?

[f1sherman]

I searched the documentation and issues in this repo and couldn't find an answer to this, my apologies if I missed something.

After assets are uploaded to the CDN, can they be deleted from the local Rails app? We're deploying via Docker and it would help greatly if we didn't need to include the assets in the Docker image. Do we need to keep the manifest-*.json? I'm sure someone has solved this, just looking for some guidance. Thank you!

manifest file probably still needed to generate asset URLs
But I guess with proper setup the local asset files can be excluded?
Test on different environment first of course
