Hi @time 

I don't believe there's a native feature for this - there's a feature request though, which has a workaround listed on it. Check that out here: BCLOUD-11593 

You should also be able to request GC from Atlassian Support - contact them here: https://support.atlassian.com/contact/#/

G'day!

It is correct that it is not possible to manually trigger a garbage collection from your side. There is an automated process which will execute a gc based on a certain threshhold of garbage (ie dangling commits, unpacked refs) is reached.

I have raised a support ticket in our system for you, as we will need access to your repository in the backend to execute a gc on our side (and this requires a formal ticket for authentication purposes). Usually we can do this without a ticket, but the size has not reduced based on our automated tooling so we will need to investigate this further.

Cheers!
