Run garbage collection on repository

[karljohanreite]

Hi Atlassian team,

I’ve rewritten my Git history and reduced its size. But when pushing to remote, it reports a much larger size. Could you run garbage collection and recalculate the repo size on your end?

This is for the repository [REDACTED].

Thanks very much!

Hi @karljohanreite 

After running cleanup operations, the size is expected to remain the same until a server-side GC is executed. This happens automatically once a certain garbage threshold is met or can be triggered manually by a support technician.

I've just executed a gc and it has reduced the size down from 496MB to 7MB.

Please note that this is a public forum, so I've redacted your workspaceID/repo slug - we are able to see this information so it is not necessary to share this publicly.

Cheers!
