Description Aude 2014-09-16 09:58:06 UTC
the contents of .git in the Wikibase repo are 45 M.  I think this can be cleaned up, for example by running "git gc --aggressive", maybe also git repack?

making this smaller would make jenkins (slaves) happier since it is installed there via composer, doing fresh clone.
Comment 1 Aude 2014-09-16 09:58:47 UTC
some of the other things suggested in rallydev.com/community/engineering/shrinking-git-repository-move-githubcom might be helpful and desirable, also.
Comment 2 Chad H. 2014-09-16 10:37:13 UTC
There is no aggressive option...gerrit gc != git gc.

But yes, we can run gerrit gc.
Comment 3 Aude 2014-09-16 10:53:27 UTC
if gerrit gc does the trick, then sounds good and worth a try :)
