1git-pack-redundant(1) 2===================== 3 4NAME 5---- 6git-pack-redundant - Find redundant pack files 7 8 9SYNOPSIS 10-------- 11'git-pack-redundant' [ --verbose ] [ --alt-odb ] < --all | .pack filename ... > 12 13DESCRIPTION 14----------- 15This program computes which packs in your repository 16are redundant. The output is suitable for piping to 17'xargs rm' if you are in the root of the repository. 18 19git-pack-redundant accepts a list of objects on standard input. Any objects 20given will be ignored when checking which packs are required. This makes the 21following command useful when wanting to remove packs which contain unreachable 22objects. 23 24git-fsck --full --unreachable | cut -d ' ' -f3 | \ 25git-pack-redundant --all | xargs rm 26 27OPTIONS 28------- 29 30 31--all:: 32 Processes all packs. Any filenames on the command line are ignored. 33 34--alt-odb:: 35 Don't require objects present in packs from alternate object 36 directories to be present in local packs. 37 38--verbose:: 39 Outputs some statistics to stderr. Has a small performance penalty. 40 41Author 42------ 43Written by Lukas Sandström <lukass@etek.chalmers.se> 44 45Documentation 46-------------- 47Documentation by Lukas Sandström <lukass@etek.chalmers.se> 48 49See Also 50-------- 51gitlink:git-pack-objects[1] 52gitlink:git-repack[1] 53gitlink:git-prune-packed[1] 54 55GIT 56--- 57Part of the gitlink:git[7] suite
