+'git repack' [-a] [-A] [-d] [-f] [-l] [-n] [-q] [--window=N] [--depth=N]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
deleted by way of being left in the old pack and then
removed. Instead, the loose unreachable objects
will be pruned according to normal expiry rules
- with the next linkgit:git-gc[1].
+ with the next 'git-gc' invocation. See linkgit:git-gc[1].
-d::
After packing, if the newly created packs make some
existing packs redundant, remove the redundant packs.
- Also runs linkgit:git-prune-packed[1].
+ Also run 'git-prune-packed' to remove redundant
+ loose object files.
-l::
- Pass the `--local` option to `git pack-objects`, see
+ Pass the `--local` option to 'git-pack-objects'. See
linkgit:git-pack-objects[1].
-f::
- Pass the `--no-reuse-delta` option to `git pack-objects`, see

-q::
- Pass the `-q` option to `git pack-objects`, see

linkgit:git-pack-objects[1].
-n::
Do not update the server information with
- `git update-server-info`. This option skips
+ 'git-update-server-info'. This option skips
updating local catalog files needed to publish
this repository (or a direct copy of it)

These two options affect how the objects contained in the pack are
stored using delta compression. The objects are first internally
sorted by type, size and optionally names and compared against the

for the repository, the command passes `--delta-base-offset`

smaller packs, but the generated packs are incompatible with
versions of git older than (and including) v1.4.3; do not set
