Repo size over 2GB

My repo size on [REDACTED] has gone over 2GB limit. This is causing problems with deployment pipeline which uses the tar ball downloads of the repo. Kindly help us with reducing the size. If you can initiate git gc, that will be helpful.

Hi @jobithmb 

I've noticed that a gc has executed against that repo and it is now < 700mb.

We have automated gc procedures that execute once a certain garbage threshhold is met, but you may also raise a support ticket to request this at any time manually with our support team using your paid workspace URL:

I've redacted your workspaceID/repository slug as this is a public forum.

Cheers!
