I recently deleted a large repo to free up storage space but I'm still seeing the message:
Hi Mark and welcome to the community!
When you delete a repository from a workspace, the workspace storage recalculation is done within a few minutes.
If this issue concerns the Bitbucket workspace that you access with the email address of your community account, I can see in our system that it consumes less than 1 GB of storage now.
Can you do a hard refresh on your browser and let me know if this message is gone now?
Kind regards,
Theodora
Yes, managed to sort it out now. I had to remove a second account. I didnt realise it was just over the total 1GB allowance. It would be handy to show clearly the total space used. Either that, or you should be able to manually delete directories within the repos, that would be handy.

Hi Mark,
Thank you for the update, that's good to hear.
The total storage used by a workspace is shown in the workspace settings. If you are a workspace admin and opens the workspace in your browser, you can select the cog icon (top right corner) > Workspace settings > Plan details. This page will show the workspace storage used. The steps are also mentioned in the blog post if someone selects the Learn more link in the banner.
Regarding manually deletion of directories, this will not have any effect on repository size. Even if you commit file or directory deletion, these files or directories will continue to exist in the repo's history in older commits. You'll need to rewrite history (for example, with a tool like BFG repo cleaner) in order to get large files/directories removed from the repo's history, and push your changes to Bitbucket.
If you push a history rewrite, the remote repo will need a git gc for the old commits to get removed and for the change in size to be reflected. If you decide to do that for one or more of your repos, and if the automated git gc that runs on every push doesn't clean them, you can reach out here in community and we can do it.
Kind regards,
Theodora
