Hi everybody,

I have a repo here that is 130G, but when I clone --mirror it, the result
is only 25G big.  Because of the --mirror I don't think that I missed
any refs that keep objects only in the source repo.

I already tried 'git repack -fad' and 'git gc' to shrink the original repo,
but it only shaved off 3G, and there are a lot of loose objects and old
pack files that I simply don't expect to be there after a repack.

Shouldn't 'git gc' (even without --aggressive) or a 'repack -fad' remove
those redundant objects and packs?

How to clean this up? (Additional problem: I don't have enough space
to run a repack anymore.)

Andreas
