After using BFG to do clean up I'm unable to push to the repo. If I can't push to it how am I supposed to reduce the size?
"WARNING: The dirty content above may be removed from other commits, but as
the *protected* commits still use it, it will STILL exist in your repository.
Details of protected dirty content have been recorded here :
/Users/xxxxxx/data/bitbucket/xxxxxx.bfg-report/2018-12-21/15-49-48/protected-dirt/
If you *really* want this content gone, make a manual commit that removes it,
and then run the BFG on a fresh copy of your repo."
It won't let me manually commit the delete of the files. What is the process to reduce the repo to get under the 2GB limit?
Hello Chris and welcome to the Community!
Hitting that hard limit of 2GB on Bitbucket free version does stop you from committing any new code or executing a delete.
The simple answer to this is to complete the following:
Bitbucket repository limits
To provide the best and fastest service for all our users we have the following repository size limits.
- Soft limit 1 GB: At this point we let you know you're getting to the higher end of an effective repository size and you might want to perform maintenance to keep from hitting the hard limit.
- Hard limit 2 GB: This is essentially a repository size stop sign we'll limit what you can do until you reduce your repository size.
If your repository exceeded the 2GB limit
Once you have taken the steps to reduce your local repository, and pushed those changes up to Bitbucket, we'll automatically run an aggressive Git gc to clean things up and get you working again.
If this does not help to resolve your issue then you may want to review the following for additional options to reduce your repository size.
I hope this helps to resolve the issue with your exceeded size limit.
