NAME

----
|
|
git-gc - Cleanup unnecessary files and optimize the local repository
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git-gc' [--prune] [--aggressive] [--auto]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Runs a number of housekeeping tasks within the current repository,
|
|
such as compressing file revisions (to reduce disk space and increase
|
|
performance) and removing unreachable objects which may have been
|
|
created from prior invocations of gitlink:git-add[1].
|
|
|
|
Users are encouraged to run this task on a regular basis within
|
|
each repository to maintain good disk space utilization and good
|
|
operating performance. Some git commands may automatically run
|
|
`git-gc`; see the `--auto` flag below for details.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
--prune::
|
|
Usually `git-gc` packs refs, expires old reflog entries,
|
|
packs loose objects,
|
|
and removes old 'rerere' records. Removal
|
|
of unreferenced loose objects is an unsafe operation
|
|
while other git operations are in progress, so it is not
|
|
done by default. Pass this option if you want it, and only
|
|
when you know nobody else is creating new objects in the
|
|
repository at the same time (e.g. never use this option
|
|
in a cron script).
|
|
|
|
--aggressive::
|
|
Usually 'git-gc' runs very quickly while providing good disk
|
|
space utilization and performance. This option will cause
|
|
git-gc to more aggressively optimize the repository at the expense
|
|
of taking much more time. The effects of this optimization are
|
|
persistent, so this option only needs to be used occasionally; every
|
|
few hundred changesets or so.
|
|
|
|
--auto::
|
|
With this option, `git gc` checks whether any housekeeping is
|
|
required; if not, it exits without performing any work.
|
|
Some git commands run `git gc --auto` after performing
|
|
operations that could create many loose objects.
|
|
+
|
|
Housekeeping is required if there are too many loose objects or
|
|
too many packs in the repository. If the number of loose objects
|
|
exceeds the value of the `gc.auto` configuration variable, then
|
|
all loose objects are combined into a single pack using
|
|
`git-repack -d -l`. Setting the value of `gc.auto` to 0
|
|
disables automatic packing of loose objects.
|
|
+
|
|
If the number of packs exceeds the value of `gc.autopacklimit`,
|
|
then existing packs (except those marked with a `.keep` file)
|
|
are consolidated into a single pack by using the `-A` option of
|
|
`git-repack`. Setting `gc.autopacklimit` to 0 disables
|
|
automatic consolidation of packs.
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The optional configuration variable 'gc.reflogExpire' can be
|
|
set to indicate how long historical entries within each branch's
|
|
reflog should remain available in this repository. The setting is
|
|
expressed as a length of time, for example '90 days' or '3 months'.
|
|
It defaults to '90 days'.
|
|
|
|
The optional configuration variable 'gc.reflogExpireUnreachable'
|
|
can be set to indicate how long historical reflog entries which
|
|
are not part of the current branch should remain available in
|
|
this repository. These types of entries are generally created as
|
|
a result of using `git commit \--amend` or `git rebase` and are the
|
|
commits prior to the amend or rebase occurring. Since these changes
|
|
are not part of the current project most users will want to expire
|
|
them sooner. This option defaults to '30 days'.
|
|
|
|
The optional configuration variable 'gc.rerereresolved' indicates
|
|
how long records of conflicted merge you resolved earlier are
|
|
kept. This defaults to 60 days.
|
|
|
|
The optional configuration variable 'gc.rerereunresolved' indicates
|
|
how long records of conflicted merge you have not resolved are
|
|
kept. This defaults to 15 days.
|
|
|
|
The optional configuration variable 'gc.packrefs' determines if
|
|
`git gc` runs `git-pack-refs`. Without the configuration, `git-pack-refs`
|
|
is not run in bare repositories by default, to allow older dumb-transport
|
|
clients fetch from the repository, but this will change in the future.
|
|
|
|
The optional configuration variable 'gc.aggressiveWindow' controls how
|
|
much time is spent optimizing the delta compression of the objects in
|
|
the repository when the --aggressive option is specified. The larger
|
|
the value, the more time is spent optimizing the delta compression. See
|
|
the documentation for the --window' option in gitlink:git-repack[1] for
|
|
more details. This defaults to 10.
