-------------------------------------
Yes, this method is currently unused. It survived the purge. I will remove it
as soon as possible.
> Remove unused code from FileStore and TarWriter

> {{FileStore.GarbageCollector#collectBulkReferences}} looks into the currently
> active {{TarWriter}} for references. At the time this method is invoked, the
> currently active {{TarWriter}} is always empty.
> Slightly before inspecting the {{TarWriter}}, {{FileStore#newWriter}} is
> called to flush the content of the current {{TarWriter}} and to create a
> fresh one. For this reason, inspecting the {{TarWriter}} in
> {{FileStore.GarbageCollector#collectBulkReferences}} is unnecessary - the
> graph of the {{TarWriter}} is always empty. Those lines of code can be safely
> removed.
