Request to Run Garbage Collection on Repositories

vid_ribic June 6, 2025

Hi Atlassian Support,

I've deleted some of my repositories and would appreciate it if you could run gc to help reduce the overall size.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Kind regards,

Vid

Hi @vid_ribic,

Your workspace currently contains numerous repositories, totaling 1.2 GB, which surpasses the 1 GB limit for free workspaces. I've performed garbage collection on several large repositories, but the total size of all repositories still exceeds the 1 GB limit. While running garbage collection provides a temporary fix, as you work on the repositories and possibly add more, the combined size of all repositories is likely to exceed this limit further.

To resolve this issue, you have two options:
Option 1:

  • Upgrade to the Standard or Premium plan. (This is the easiest option and allows for growth without encountering the workspace size limit)

Option 2:

  • Reduce the sizes of the repositories in your workspace. This approach will require collaboration via a ticket.
  • Consider deleting additional repositories.

As long as the total size of all your repositories remains under 1 GB, you will be able to push changes again.

I hope this information is helpful.

- Phil
