DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
This program searches the `$GIT_OBJECT_DIR` for all objects that currently
|
|
|
|
exist in a pack file as well as the independent object directories.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All such extra objects are removed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A pack is a collection of objects, individually compressed, with delta
|
|
|
|
compression applied, stored in a single file, with an associated index file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Packs are used to reduce the load on mirror systems, backup engines,
|
|
|
|
disk storage, etc.
