As I understand it, you can reduce the size of a repository by removing from it branch names and tag names that you do not need, then running "git gc" to purge from the repository objects that no longer have a named reference to them. What you cannot do is remove any of the history of any branch whose head you want to have in the repository -- every commit reqires the presence of its predecessor commit(s). There are probably advanced techniques that get around the latter restriction, but I don't know what they are.
