is there a way to trigger gc on my repo

[user]

hi team

a question billion times asked but still ...

could you trigger gc for my repo as there is a clear mismatch between what i have

~/IdeaProjects/111$ du -h .
4,0K ./wordcards2.git/branches
176M ./wordcards2.git/objects/pack
4,0K ./wordcards2.git/objects/info
176M ./wordcards2.git/objects
4,0K ./wordcards2.git/refs/tags
4,0K ./wordcards2.git/refs/heads
12K ./wordcards2.git/refs
168K ./wordcards2.git/hooks
16K ./wordcards2.git/info
177M ./wordcards2.git

and what bitbucket ui shows:

wordcards2 -> 488.5 MB

so difference is around 300MB

the same issue is for studyanddev, here the difference is around 80MB

I also have a feeling that some of the repositories I deleted were not actually removed and are still taking up disk space.

thanks in advance

Hi @user

Welcome to the community.

I went ahead and run Git GC against the remote repository.

From 488.5 MB, it is now down to 176.7 MB.

For the deleted repos, their sizes should automatically reduce your overall workspace size upon deletion.

Hope it helps. Let me know how it goes.
