Request server-side garbage collection — workspace still read-only after Git history cleanup

Question

Hello Bitbucket Support,

My Bitbucket Cloud Free workspace has exceeded the 1 GB storage limit and is still in read-only mode.

I have rewritten the Git history of my repository mita-hrm using git-filter-repo to remove historical versions of four large DOCX contract templates. I then restored and committed the latest versions of those four files.

The local .git directory has decreased from approximately 902 MB to 246 MB, but Bitbucket still displays the 1 GB workspace storage warning.

Could you please:

* Check the actual storage usage of my workspace and repositories.
* Run server-side garbage collection on mita-hrm if appropriate.
* Confirm when the workspace is below the 1 GB limit and write access can be restored.

Thank you.
