Garbage Collection Does Not Reduce Repo Size

Jeff Mangum December 28, 2022

Hello,

I am trying to reduce the size of my bitbucket repo. We have cleared the last commits and removed files, but I have not been successful at reducing my repo size.  I have tried running `git gc`, but this did not have any affect on the repo size.

I think I need a garbage collection from support. Please advise how I can reduce the repo size if this does not work as I have taken steps outlined here. https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/reduce-repository-size/

Thank you!

-- Jeff

Hey @Jeff Mangum 

G'day.

As requested, I have triggered Git GC on the affected repository, and the size is now 62 MB. So can you check and verify this with me?

Cheers,
Syahrul
