Hello,
I've recently used bfg to remove large files from my repo (in two sessions) but it has increased in size both times.
Initial size 218.52 MB
1st run size increased to 426.2 MB
2nd run size increased to 629.76 MB
I'm not sure if this is the correct place to make the request but I would kindly request support runs gc on my repos.
thank you.
It's actually expected for a repo to increase in size after performing maintenance operations, as it creates garbage that needs to be cleaned from our side with a server-side garbage collection.
I executed a gc and this reduced the size from 629MB to 203MB.
You had a much larger repo at 2.9GB that I've also executed a gc against - this reduced down to 1.1GB.
Overall - your workspace is still using over 3GB - if your aim is to reduce the size < 1GB I'd suggest finding any large binary files using the below command and following documentation to remove/convert these files to GIT LFS:
git rev-list --objects --all \
| git cat-file --batch-check='%(objecttype) %(objectname) %(objectsize) %(rest)' \
| awk '/^blob/ {print substr($0,6)}' \
| sort -r --numeric-sort --key=2 \
| numfmt --field=2 --to=iec-i --suffix=B --padding=7 --round=nearest
Once you've done so, please let me know and I'll perform subsequent gc's (just give me the repo filesize rather than sharing the name as this is a public forum).
Alternatively, you can upgrade to our Standard/Premium plans which offer unlimited workspace size:

I've reduced the size on that one from 411MB to 8MB with a gc. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
Cheers!

I've reduced those repositories as follows - you still have 2.4GB of total space consumed on your workspace:
256.6MB > 12.2MB
211.6MB > 3.3MB
I'd suggest continuing to work on those large repositories using the commands I've shared earlier.
Please let me know when you're ready for further gc's.
Cheers!
