Repository Size Not Reducing

Hello! 

 

I ran BFG Repo cleaner, following the directions here. This successfully reduced the size of my repository (based on fresh `git clone` and `git clone --mirror`) by several hundred megabytes. However, the Bitbucket workspace and Bitbucket Repository size has not decreased, even after several more pushes and waiting for 30 days. 

 

I see other forum posts here that Bitbucket Support can run garbage collection on their end to reduce the size of my repository. Could somebody please help with that? My workspace is https://bitbucket.org/Dumpis/, and the repository is named custom-hobo. 

 

Thank you!
