size: 0 bytes
in-pack: 778
packs: 1
size-pack: 9.44 MiB
prune-packable: 0
garbage: 0

As someone from atlassian team wrote here

https://community.atlassian.com/forums/Bitbucket-questions/Repository-size-is-not-recalculation-even-after-I-cleaned-all/qaq-p/3000793

"If the automated git gc does not clean up your repo, you can always create a question in community and ask that we run it for your repo manually"

So im asking to manualy GC my repo "/ai-apps-payter/sai_api/' thx

Hi @Peter Gašparík 

I've just executed a gc on the server-side, this is required from our end to clear up any dangling commits created as a result of cleanup operations (this runs automatically but only once a certain garbage threshhold is met). This has reduced the repo size down from 2.2GB to 87.7MB.

Some variance is expected in your repository size for local vs remote repository storage, as metadata such as PR's contribute to the file size remotely (as binary files are stored in PR's to assist with diff calculation speed).

Please let me know if further clarification is needed - hope this helps.

Cheers!
