GIT-PACK-REDUNDANT(1) Git Manual GIT-PACK-REDUNDANT(1)
NAME
git-pack-redundant - Find redundant pack files
SYNOPSIS
git pack-redundant [--verbose] [--alt-odb] (--all | <pack-filename>...)
WARNING
git pack-redundant has been deprecated and is scheduled for removal in
a future version of Git. Because it can only remove entire duplicate
packs and not individual duplicate objects, it is generally not a
useful tool for reducing repository size. You are better off using git
gc to do so, which will put objects into a new pack, removing
duplicates.
Running pack-redundant without the --i-still-use-this flag will fail in
this release. If you believe you have a use case for which
pack-redundant is better suited and oppose this removal, please contact
the Git mailing list at git@vger.kernel.org[1]. More information about
the list is available at https://git-scm.com/community.
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
database (odb) directories to be present in local packs.
--verbose
Outputs some statistics to stderr. Has a small performance penalty.
