git-prune(1) |
|
============ |
|
|
|
NAME |
|
---- |
|
git-prune - Prune all unreachable objects from the object database |
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS |
|
-------- |
|
'git-prune' [-n] [--expire <expire>] [--] [<head>...] |
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION |
|
----------- |
|
|
|
NOTE: In most cases, users should run 'git-gc', which calls |
|
'git-prune'. See the section "NOTES", below. |
|
|
|
This runs 'git-fsck --unreachable' using all the refs |
|
available in `$GIT_DIR/refs`, optionally with additional set of |
|
objects specified on the command line, and prunes all unpacked |
|
objects unreachable from any of these head objects from the object database. |
|
In addition, it |
|
prunes the unpacked objects that are also found in packs by |
|
running 'git-prune-packed'. |
|
|
|
Note that unreachable, packed objects will remain. If this is |
|
not desired, see linkgit:git-repack[1]. |
|
|
|
OPTIONS |
|
------- |
|
|
|
-n:: |
|
Do not remove anything; just report what it would |
|
remove. |
|
|
|
\--:: |
|
Do not interpret any more arguments as options. |
|
|
|
--expire <time>:: |
|
Only expire loose objects older than <time>. |
|
|
|
<head>...:: |
|
In addition to objects |
|
reachable from any of our references, keep objects |
|
reachable from listed <head>s. |
|
|
|
EXAMPLE |
|
------- |
|
|
|
To prune objects not used by your repository nor another that |
|
borrows from your repository via its |
|
`.git/objects/info/alternates`: |
|
|
|
------------ |
|
$ git prune $(cd ../another && $(git rev-parse --all)) |
|
------------ |
|
|
|
Notes |
|
----- |
|
|
|
In most cases, users will not need to call 'git-prune' directly, but |
|
should instead call 'git-gc', which handles pruning along with |
|
many other housekeeping tasks. |
|
|
|
For a description of which objects are considered for pruning, see |
|
'git-fsck''s --unreachable option. |
