Request Garbage collection

nfrance709

I removed some large files from a repo and it doubled in size, its currently 1.63 GB.

Can you run garbage collection to see if the repo reduces in size?

Hi @nfrance709 ,

To shrink your Bitbucket repo:

Backup: Clone with --mirror.
Remove Large Files: Use BFG Repo Cleaner or git filter-branch.
Garbage Collection:

git reflog expire --expire=now --all

git gc --prune=now

Force Push:

git push --all --force

git push --tags --force

Hi Neil and welcome to the community!

I saw one repo with a size of 1.6 GB among the ones you have access to. I ran a git gc for it and its size has been reduced.

Does it look on now on your end?

Kind regards,
Theodora
