Need to trigger a gc (--aggressive) on remote repository

Question

I just removed a big folder (whole history) from a repository which took 1.2GB of disk space.

A fresh clone is 120MB, but the size on Bitbucket cloud is still 1.2GB.

I was wondering in someone can trigger the git gc --aggressive and git prune.

Thanks a lot,

Cristi

Hi @Sandu Cristian Bodnariuc

Welcome to the community.

I went ahead and run Git GC against the repository.

Could you check your repository size now?
