| git-pack-redundant(1) | 
 | ===================== | 
 |  | 
 | NAME | 
 | ---- | 
 | git-pack-redundant - Find redundant pack files | 
 |  | 
 |  | 
 | SYNOPSIS | 
 | -------- | 
 | [verse] | 
 | 'git pack-redundant' [ --verbose ] [ --alt-odb ] < --all | .pack filename ... > | 
 |  | 
 | DESCRIPTION | 
 | ----------- | 
 | This program computes which packs in your repository | 
 | are redundant. The output is suitable for piping to | 
 | `xargs rm` if you are in the root of the repository. | 
 |  | 
 | 'git pack-redundant' accepts a list of objects on standard input. Any objects | 
 | given will be ignored when checking which packs are required. This makes the | 
 | following command useful when wanting to remove packs which contain unreachable | 
 | objects. | 
 |  | 
 | git fsck --full --unreachable | cut -d ' ' -f3 | \ | 
 | git pack-redundant --all | xargs rm | 
 |  | 
 | OPTIONS | 
 | ------- | 
 |  | 
 |  | 
 | --all:: | 
 | 	Processes all packs. Any filenames on the command line are ignored. | 
 |  | 
 | --alt-odb:: | 
 | 	Don't require objects present in packs from alternate object | 
 | 	directories to be present in local packs. | 
 |  | 
 | --verbose:: | 
 | 	Outputs some statistics to stderr. Has a small performance penalty. |
