Request for garbage collection on repository.

I accidentally started to commit some large files before updating the gitignore. After cancelling this commit, sorting out the files, updating the git ignore, and pushing a commit that should not have meaningfully changed the repo size, my repository still ballooned up beyond the size limit.

I would like to request garbage collection for this repository so that the total size returns to the actual amount. Currently pushing is disabled because of the incorrect size.

Hi @Studio Vezelle

Welcome to the community.

I went ahead and ran Git GC against your repository and it is now down to 3 GB.

You should be able to push to now.
