Hi @moises_b

Welcome to the community.

I checked all your repositories, however, there were no size mor than 500 MB.

Is there a specific repository you'd like me to run Git GC? Also, may I know the reason of the Git GC?

Regards,
Mark C

Hi Mark,

My repository gespet_web is almost 600MB according to bitbucket.org projects repositories list page.

My total storage used use 1.25GB according to my workspace plan details page.

You're making new rules and enforcements for workspaces over 1 GB in the coming months.

I've made some cleanup on my repos however the size continues to grow on your website pages (plan details, projects repo list).

I've read that a GC could help with that. That's why I'm asking to run it.

Hi @moises_b

Thanks for that information,

I went ahead and run Git GC for the repository, however, the size remains the same.

You can continue to follow the steps mentioned in this documentation on reducing repository size: Reduce repository size

Let me know if you'd like me to run Git GC after reducing more of your repository.

Regards,
Mark C
