12 This program computes which packs in your repository are redundant. The
13 output is suitable for piping to xargs rm if you are in the root of the
14 repository.
15
16 git pack-redundant accepts a list of objects on standard input. Any
17 objects given will be ignored when checking which packs are required.
18 This makes the following command useful when wanting to remove packs
19 which contain unreachable objects.
20
21 git fsck --full --unreachable | cut -d ' ' -f3 | \ git pack-redundant
22 --all | xargs rm
23
25 --all
26 Processes all packs. Any filenames on the command line are ignored.
27
28 --alt-odb
29 Don’t require objects present in packs from alternate object
30 directories to be present in local packs.
31
32 --verbose
33 Outputs some statistics to stderr. Has a small performance penalty.
