I am not able to git push and getting you've exceeded your user limit error

[Naime Iosimuta]

I have this https://bitbucket.org/boldrocket/nextbank/

And it is over 2GB, but when I try to delete old branches I receive this error:

remote: Repository is in read only mode (over 2 GB size limit). Learn how to reduce your repository size: https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/xgMvEw.

Hi Naime,

I am not from the Bitbucket team but will try and help.

Can you explain how you are trying to delete the old branches?  Via the command-line?

Have you tried doing this via the UI?

Hi Martyn, 

Thanks for your help!

I tried both ways, using the web interface and via command line:

C:\workspace\nextbank>git push origin --delete feature/cap/PB-428_BRAD-19284/APIC
remote: Repository is in read only mode (over 2 GB size limit). Learn how to reduce your repository size: https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/xgMvEw.

Hi Naime,

In that article in the error messages it says 

"Once you've exceeded the 2 GB limit you can only push commit deletions or reversions"

Perhaps it won't let you delete branches but only will allow deleting commits?
