Request for Garbage Collection

Bradon Beck July 7, 2022

Hi, I am Bradon Beck from Exact Controls. I have added a few large binaries to our repository without understanding the consequences of it. I have since rolled back to a commit without the large files, but we are still over our 4 gig limit. I would like to request a garbage collection. If you need more information, or if you need to hear from our admin, just let me know.

Thank you for your time

Edit: I ended up enabling "Delete dangling commits" in labs, then pushing a git reset. It automatically freed up space, getting the repository under 4 gigs and out of read only mode. I would like to thank the Atlassian devs and community for their helpful documentation on the subject.

Hi Bradon,

It's good to hear that pushing a git reset with "Delete dangling commits" enabled worked well.

Please feel free to reach out if you ever need anything else!

Kind regards,
Theodora
