Actually, the output of 'git rev-list --objects --reflog' is empty, and there isn't even a reflog (or similar) directory. (This is a bare repo inside atlass. stash.) ... > > I already tried 'git repack -fad' and 'git gc' to shrink the original repo, > > You don't need the "-f" here.

Apparently, part of the trick is --prune=all or similar on 'git gc', to get rid of the loose objects faster. That got a copy of the repo down to around 70G - still way to go.
