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