Hello! As reported by Tobias on IRC (in the context of ‘hpcguix-web’), checkouts managed by Guile-Git appear to grow beyond reason. As an example, here’s the same ‘.git’ managed with Guile-Git and with Git:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ du -hs ~/.cache/guix/checkouts/pjmkglp4t7znuugeurpurzikxq3tnlaywmisyr27shj7apsnalwq 6.7G /home/ludo/.cache/guix/checkouts/pjmkglp4t7znuugeurpurzikxq3tnlaywmisyr27shj7apsnalwq $ du -hs .git 517M .git --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- It would seem that libgit2 doesn’t do the equivalent of ‘git gc’. Ludo’.
