Repository size way bigger than the actual size

[bdvintila]

Hello, I recently received a notification that my Bitbucket workspace has exceeded the 1GB limit. However, the combined size of my local repositories appears to be significantly smaller. It seems the reported remote workspace size might be inaccurate for 2 of my repos(800 MB and 700 MB). Could you please run git gc on your servers to re-evaluate the workspace size? Thank you.

Hi @bdvintila

Welcome to the community.

I did try running Git GC against those repos with 800+MB and 700+MB sizes.

Unfortunately, their repo sizes remains the same.

You could follow our guide here (if you haven't yet) on how to reduce your repos: Reduce repository size

Let me know if you'd like me to run Git GC afterwards.

Regards,
Mark C

I have escalated to Atlassian so they can run garbage collection.
