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 ... >

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 directories to be present in local packs.

       --verbose
           Outputs some statistics to stderr. Has a small performance penalty.
