Repository Size is showing incorrect value

Question

I cleaned up my repository

now when I do git clone with --mirror flag the total size of the clone folder is only 48.1 MB.

But when I go to Repository settings it shows repository size as 1.5 GB

Whats going on here?

Any help is highly appreciated.

Regards,

K

Thanks a lot for you response, highly appreciate it.

Now I tried a normal git clone, repository size is only 96.8 MB, which still different from 1.5 GB shown in Repository Details. I read somewhere that bitbucket support should run git gc from back-end after a clean up is done. I did a clean up approximately a month ago (I still see the repository size warning btw).
