NAME
|
||||
----
|
||||
git-repack - Pack unpacked objects in a repository
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
SYNOPSIS
|
||||
--------
|
||||
[verse]
|
||||
'git repack' [-a] [-A] [-d] [-f] [-F] [-l] [-n] [-q] [-b] [--window=<n>] [--depth=<n>] [--threads=<n>] [--keep-pack=<pack-name>]
|
||||
|
||||
DESCRIPTION
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
This command is used to combine all objects that do not currently
|
||||
reside in a "pack", into a pack. It can also be used to re-organize
|
||||
existing packs into a single, more efficient pack.
|
||||
|
||||
A pack is a collection of objects, individually compressed, with
|
||||
delta compression applied, stored in a single file, with an
|
||||
associated index file.
|
||||
|
||||
Packs are used to reduce the load on mirror systems, backup
|
||||
engines, disk storage, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
OPTIONS
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
-a::
|
||||
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 `-d`. This will clean up the objects that `git prune`
|
||||
leaves behind, but `git fsck --full --dangling` shows as
|
||||
dangling.
|
||||
+
|
||||
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.
|
||||
+
|
||||
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.
|
||||
|
||||
-A::
|
||||
Same as `-a`, unless `-d` 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 'git gc' invocation. See linkgit:git-gc[1].
|
||||
|
||||
-d::
|
||||
After packing, if the newly created packs make some
|
||||
existing packs redundant, remove the redundant packs.
|
||||
Also run 'git prune-packed' to remove redundant
|
||||
loose object files.
|
||||
|
||||
-l::
|
||||
Pass the `--local` option to 'git pack-objects'. See
|
||||
linkgit:git-pack-objects[1].
|
||||
|
||||
-f::
|
||||
Pass the `--no-reuse-delta` option to `git-pack-objects`, see
|
||||
linkgit:git-pack-objects[1].
|
||||
|
||||
-F::
|
||||
Pass the `--no-reuse-object` option to `git-pack-objects`, see
|
||||
linkgit:git-pack-objects[1].
|
||||
|
||||
-q::
|
||||
Pass the `-q` option to 'git pack-objects'. See
|
||||
linkgit:git-pack-objects[1].
|
||||
|
||||
-n::
|
||||
Do not update the server information with
|
||||
'git update-server-info'. This option skips
|
||||
updating local catalog files needed to publish
|
||||
this repository (or a direct copy of it)
|
||||
over HTTP or FTP. See linkgit:git-update-server-info[1].
|
||||
|
||||
--window=<n>::
|
||||
--depth=<n>::
|
||||
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 `--window` to see if using delta compression saves
|
||||
space. `--depth` 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.
|
||||
+
|
||||
The default value for --window is 10 and --depth is 50. The maximum
|
||||
depth is 4095.
|
||||
|
||||
--threads=<n>::
|
||||
This option is passed through to `git pack-objects`.
|
||||
|
||||
--window-memory=<n>::
|
||||
This option provides an additional limit on top of `--window`;
|
||||
the window size will dynamically scale down so as to not take
|
||||
up more than '<n>' 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".
|
||||
`--window-memory=0` makes memory usage unlimited. The default
|
||||
is taken from the `pack.windowMemory` configuration variable.
|
||||
Note that the actual memory usage will be the limit multiplied
|
||||
by the number of threads used by linkgit:git-pack-objects[1].
|
||||
|
||||
--max-pack-size=<n>::
|
||||
Maximum size of each output pack file. The size can be suffixed with
|
||||
"k", "m", or "g". The minimum size allowed is limited to 1 MiB.
|
||||
If specified, multiple packfiles may be created, which also
|
||||
prevents the creation of a bitmap index.
|
||||
The default is unlimited, unless the config variable
|
||||
`pack.packSizeLimit` is set.
|
||||
|
||||
-b::
|
||||
--write-bitmap-index::
|
||||
Write a reachability bitmap index as part of the repack. This
|
||||
only makes sense when used with `-a` or `-A`, as the bitmaps
|
||||
must be able to refer to all reachable objects. This option
|
||||
overrides the setting of `repack.writeBitmaps`. This option
|
||||
has no effect if multiple packfiles are created.
|
||||
|
||||
--pack-kept-objects::
|
||||
Include objects in `.keep` files when repacking. Note that we
|
||||
still do not delete `.keep` packs after `pack-objects` finishes.
|
||||
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 `-b` or `repack.writeBitmaps`, as it ensures that the
|
||||
bitmapped packfile has the necessary objects.
|
||||
|
||||
--keep-pack=<pack-name>::
|
||||
Exclude the given pack from repacking. This is the equivalent
|
||||
of having `.keep` file on the pack. `<pack-name>` is the
|
||||
pack file name without leading directory (e.g. `pack-123.pack`).
|
||||
The option could be specified multiple times to keep multiple
|
||||
packs.
|
||||
|
||||
--unpack-unreachable=<when>::
|
||||
When loosening unreachable objects, do not bother loosening any
|
||||
objects older than `<when>`. This can be used to optimize out
|
||||
the write of any objects that would be immediately pruned by
|
||||
a follow-up `git prune`.
|
||||
|
||||
-k::
|
||||
--keep-unreachable::
|
||||
When used with `-ad`, any unreachable objects from existing
|
||||
packs will be appended to the end of the packfile instead of
|
||||
being removed. In addition, any unreachable loose objects will
|
||||
be packed (and their loose counterparts removed).
|
||||
|
||||
-i::
|
||||
--delta-islands::
|
||||
Pass the `--delta-islands` option to `git-pack-objects`, see
|
||||
linkgit:git-pack-objects[1].
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the command passes `--delta-base-offset` option to
|
||||
'git pack-objects'; this typically results in slightly smaller packs,
|
||||
but the generated packs are incompatible with versions of Git older than
|
||||
version 1.4.4. If you need to share your repository with such ancient Git
|
||||
versions, either directly or via the dumb http protocol, then you
|
||||
need to set the configuration variable `repack.UseDeltaBaseOffset` 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
|
||||
as needed in that case.
