The garbage collect was just runned once on the server? That's all?! Nice!!! Does this to be done again at some interval, e.g. after a lot of commits, merges, ...?
I do not agree because when I checkout compat with all submodules I have ~46MB size and after 'git gc --aggressive' to all of them it shrinks to ~25MB so roughly a factor 2. I would love to see this done!
How is the state here?
By the way; would it make sence to run this by cronjob e.g. once a month or so?
It should not be needed since git will garbage collect automatically from time to time:
$ git remote update Auto packing the repository for optimum performance. You may also run "git gc" manually. See "git help gc" for more information. ...
Have a look at the --auto option in `man git-gc`.
