Hi,
We use a BB project as a template to be forked to create "real" projects. When I get this repository settings page, I see this repository size is about 300 MB, and this scared me. So, I made a little analysis.
git clone --mirror git@bitbucket.org:xxxxxx/template git count-objects -v count: 0 size: 0 in-pack: 11 packs: 1 size-pack: 8 prune-packable: 0 garbage: 0 size-garbage: 0
The mirror flag is supposed to get everything from the repository. 8 kB is much more what I'm expecting from this template which handles a folder structure and some settings files.
I made another test: run BFG Repo Cleaner to search files bigger than 1MB and...nothing.
What really really scared me is I've forked this repository to create a new projet. This new project is also empty (except the settings files), it has the same size-pack and BFG Repo Cleaner also doesn't find any big files. But the BitBucket interface tells me this 8 kB repository eats 2.1 GB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Atlassian guys and girls, I think you've some troubles in there.
Romut,
If you cleaned your (main) repository, it just means that we need to do server-side cleanup. We do very small amount of garbage collection after every push, but this won't capture any expired / old refs over time. Simply e-mail support@bitbucket.org with the account / repo and we can take a look and do a more thorough cleanup on our side.
Thanks,
Jesse
