NAME
git-pack-redundant - Program used to find redundant
pack files
SYNOPSIS
git-pack-redundant [ --verbose ] [
--alt-odb ] < --all | .pack filename >
DESCRIPTION
This program computes which packs in your
repository are redundant. The output is suitable for piping to
xargs rm if you are in the root of the repository.
git-pack-redundant accepts a list of objects on standard input.
Any objects given will be ignored when checking which packs are
required. This makes the following command useful when wanting to
remove packs which contain unreachable objects.
git-fsck-objects --full --unreachable | cut -d -f3 |
git-pack-redundant --all | xargs rm
OPTIONS
- --all
- Processes all packs. Any filenames on the command line are
ignored.
- --alt-odb
- Don't require objects present in packs from alternate object
directories to be present in local packs.
- --verbose
- Outputs some statistics to stderr. Has a small performance
penalty.
