Garbage collection

Thierry Goldwaser
Thierry Goldwaser March 31, 2025

Hi,

I have run BFG on 2 repositories to free up space, but the displayed size did not update.

I suspect I have to run garbage collection on the remote repositories, but how to proceed?

Thanks

Thierry

Hi @Thierry Goldwaser

Welcome to the community.

I went ahead and run Git GC against those 2 repositories.

Could you check the size now?

Regards,
Mark C
