Hello Atlassien Team,

I have a problem with the garbage collector i guess, pushes to the repositry (ibrafl/deck-master) are blocked because our workspace exceeds the 1 GB limit.

We removed approximately 11,000 tracked images and reduced the local packed repository from about 700 MiB to 101 MiB. However, Bitbucket still reports the repository as 810.9 MB.

Could you please run server-side garbage collection or refresh the repository’s storage calculation?

Thank you.

Hey @Flamur Ibrahimi 

I have triggered GC on the repository, and the size is now at 100+ MB.

I hope this helps.

Hi Syahrul,

Thank you for your help. The repository size is now significantly smaller, and the issue appears to be resolved.

Best Regards,
