DESCRIPTION

13       This program searches the $GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY for all objects that
14       currently exist in a pack file as well as the independent object
15       directories.
16
17       All such extra objects are removed.
18
19       A pack is a collection of objects, individually compressed, with delta
20       compression applied, stored in a single file, with an associated index
21       file.
22
23       Packs are used to reduce the load on mirror systems, backup engines,
24       disk storage, etc.
