git-repack(1)
=============
v0.99.5, August 2005
NAME
----
git-repack - Script used to pack a repository from a collection of
objects into pack files.
SYNOPSIS
--------
'git-repack' [-a] [-d]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This script is used to combine all objects that do not currently
reside in a "pack", into a 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 available into a single pack.
Especially useful when packing a repository that is used
for a private development and there no need to worry
about people fetching via dumb protocols from it. Use
with '-d'.
-d::
After packing, if the newly created packs make some
existing packs redundant, remove the redundant packs.
