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 19'git 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 41SEE ALSO 42-------- 43linkgit:git-pack-objects[1] 44linkgit:git-repack[1] 45linkgit:git-prune-packed[1] 46 47GIT 48--- 49Part of the linkgit:git[1] suite
