Request manual server-side garbage collection for repository size

Question

Hi Bitbucket team,

Repository: leach-manga

Workspace: kannguyen

We cleaned and rewrote the repository history, then force-pushed the cleaned result.

The current local Git object database is approximately 75 MB (.git folder is about 78 MB), but Bitbucket still reports the repository size as approximately 555 MB. My workspace is approaching the 1 GB limit.

It appears that server-side garbage collection has not reclaimed unreachable objects or refreshed the repository size.

Please help me trigger a manual server-side garbage collection/repack and recalculate the repository size.

Thank you.

You'll want to open a support ticket for this - as this is just an open Q/A Forum.

Also may not want to give too much information about your instance as well.
