Request to run git gc to clear dangling commits (Repository over 1GB limit)

[sam 쌤]

Hello,

Our repository zamfaceapp has exceeded the 1GB limit and is now in read-only mode. We have already used git filter-repo locally to delete large files (.hprof dumps) from our entire history and force-pushed the cleaned repository.

However, because the dangling commits are still cached on your server, the size currently shows as 1.3GB. Could you please run git gc on our repository to physically remove the unreferenced objects and unlock the read-only mode?

Thank you!

Hi @sam 쌤 

I've executed a gc against your repository - the size reduced from 1.3GB > ~852MB.

I hope this helps, please let me know if you need anything else.

Cheers!
