Hello.

I removed some large files from git history using BFG tool.

Would it be possible to run garbage collection on this repository: BatonCore?

Hey @stephanBaton ,

and welcome to the Community!

I've manually triggered a Garbage Collection on your repository and managed to reduce its size back to 260MB!

Would you please confirm if everything looks good on your end now ?

Let us know if you have any other questions.

@stephanBaton Welcome to the Atlassian community

I have escalated to support.  If you are not on the free plan you can do this through a support issue in the future.
