NAME
git-pack-redundant - 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 --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.
