Hi, A force push is a destructive operation. It's really not recommended to use it on a used project in any case. Even if it's to win some space, it's not worth it. For the .git folder, in general when they grow too much it's often only local. The .git folder of my local clone of roassal is 384B and I have it since month and it is up to date. The "easy" solution is to clone again. Most of the time when I have a clone that is too big, the command `git gc` is enough to shrink it. > Cheers, > Alexandre > > > -- Cyril Ferlicot https://ferlicot.fr
