Hey,

This repository was close from the 4GB limit (3.96GB).

I used BFG to remove most .ane .swc and .fla files from the history. Big lines:
- git clone --mirror https://XXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYY@bitbucket.org/workspace-id/repo.git
- java -jar bfg-1.14.0.jar --delete-files *.ane
- java -jar bfg-1.14.0.jar --delete-files *.swc
- java -jar bfg-1.14.0.jar --delete-files *.fla
- cd domination.git
- git reflog expire --expire=now
- git gc --prune=now --aggressive
- git push

While on a freshly cloned repo git count-objects -vH shows 135.12MiB, bitbucket shows 4.1GB

Following this question could anyone from the team run git gc on the repository, please ? Or did I messed up something during the cleanup ?

(I do upvote this feature request)

Best Regards,
Mathieu

Hi Mathieu and welcome to the community!

I ran a git gc for the repository; its size has been reduced very close to the size you're seeing locally, and you should be able to push new commits. Is everything ok on your end now?

Just a heads up, I removed the repo details from your post to comply with our privacy policy.

Kind regards,
