Instead of incrementally packing the unpacked objects,
|
|
pack everything referenced into a single pack.
|
|
Especially useful when packing a repository that is used
|
|
for private development. Use
|
|
with <code>-d</code>. This will clean up the objects that <code>git</code> <code>prune</code>
|
|
leaves behind, but <code>git</code> <code>fsck</code> <code>--full</code> <code>--dangling</code> shows as
|
|
dangling.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>Note that users fetching over dumb protocols will have to fetch the
|
|
whole new pack in order to get any contained object, no matter how many
|
|
other objects in that pack they already have locally.</p></div>
|
|
<div class="paragraph"><p>Promisor packfiles are repacked separately: if there are packfiles that
|
|
have an associated ".promisor" file, these packfiles will be repacked
|
|
into another separate pack, and an empty ".promisor" file corresponding
|
|
to the new separate pack will be written.</p></div>

Same as <code>-a</code>, unless <code>-d</code> is used. Then any unreachable
|
|
objects in a previous pack become loose, unpacked objects,
|
|
instead of being left in the old pack. Unreachable objects
|
|
are never intentionally added to a pack, even when repacking.
|
|
This option prevents unreachable objects from being immediately
|
|
deleted by way of being left in the old pack and then
|
|
removed. Instead, the loose unreachable objects
|
|
will be pruned according to normal expiry rules
|
|
with the next <em>git gc</em> invocation. See <a href="git-gc.html">git-gc(1)</a>.

After packing, if the newly created packs make some

|
existing packs redundant, remove the redundant packs.

Also run <em>git prune-packed</em> to remove redundant
|

loose object files.

When generating cruft packs without pruning, only repack
|
|
existing cruft packs whose size is strictly less than <em><n></em>,
|
|
where <em><n></em> represents a number of bytes, which can optionally
|
|
be suffixed with "k", "m", or "g". Cruft packs whose size is
|
|
greater than or equal to <em><n></em> are left as-is and not repacked.
|
|
Useful when you want to avoid repacking large cruft pack(s) in
|
|
repositories that have many and/or large unreachable objects.

These two options affect how the objects contained in the pack are
|
|
stored using delta compression. The objects are first internally
|
|
sorted by type, size and optionally names and compared against the
|
|
other objects within <code>--window</code> to see if using delta compression saves
|
|
space. <code>--depth</code> limits the maximum delta depth; making it too deep
|
|
affects the performance on the unpacker side, because delta data needs
|
|
to be applied that many times to get to the necessary object.

--window-memory=<n>

|

<p>
|
|
This option provides an additional limit on top of <code>--window</code>;
|
|
the window size will dynamically scale down so as to not take
|
|
up more than <em><n></em> bytes in memory. This is useful in
|
|
repositories with a mix of large and small objects to not run
|
|
out of memory with a large window, but still be able to take
|
|
advantage of the large window for the smaller objects. The
|
|
size can be suffixed with "k", "m", or "g".
|
|
<code>--window-memory=0</code> makes memory usage unlimited. The default
|
|
is taken from the <code>pack.windowMemory</code> configuration variable.
|
|
Note that the actual memory usage will be the limit multiplied
|
|
by the number of threads used by <a href="git-pack-objects.html">git-pack-objects(1)</a>.

Maximum size of each output pack file. The size can be suffixed with

|

If specified, multiple packfiles may be created, which also
|
|
prevents the creation of a bitmap index.
|

The default is unlimited, unless the config variable

<code>pack.packSizeLimit</code> is set. Note that this option may result in

a larger and slower repository; see the discussion in

Remove objects matching the filter specification from the

resulting packfile and put them into a separate packfile. Note
|
|
that objects used in the working directory are not filtered
|
|
out. So for the split to fully work, it’s best to perform it
|
|
in a bare repo and to use the <code>-a</code> and <code>-d</code> options along with
|
|
this option. Also <code>--no-write-bitmap-index</code> (or the
|
|
<code>repack.writebitmaps</code> config option set to <code>false</code>) should be
|
|
used otherwise writing bitmap index will fail, as it supposes
|
|
a single packfile containing all the objects. See

<a href="git-rev-list.html">git-rev-list(1)</a> for valid <em><filter-spec></em> forms.

Write the pack containing filtered out objects to the

used for putting the pack on a separate object directory that
|
|
is accessed through the Git alternates mechanism. <strong>WARNING:</strong>
|
|
If the packfile containing the filtered out objects is not
|
|
accessible, the repo can become corrupt as it might not be
|
|
possible to access the objects in that packfile. See the

Write a reachability bitmap index as part of the repack. This

only makes sense when used with <code>-a</code>, <code>-A</code> or <code>-m</code>, as the bitmaps
|
|
must be able to refer to all reachable objects. This option
|
|
overrides the setting of <code>repack.writeBitmaps</code>. This option

has no effect if multiple packfiles are created, unless writing a

MIDX (in which case a multi-pack bitmap is created).

Include objects in <code>.keep</code> files when repacking. Note that we

This means that we may duplicate objects, but this makes the

option safe to use when there are concurrent pushes or fetches.
|

This option is generally only useful if you are writing bitmaps

with <code>-b</code> or <code>repack.writeBitmaps</code>, as it ensures that the

bitmapped packfile has the necessary objects.

versions, either directly or via the dumb http protocol, then you

need to set the configuration variable <code>repack.UseDeltaBaseOffset</code> to

"false" and repack. Access from old Git versions over the native protocol

is unaffected by this option as the conversion is performed on the fly
