So as I am doing experiments for finetuning parameters for #wakegp, I noticed the repository is taking a lot of space, more than 0.5GB. I asked in #codeberg #Matrix room. As they have limits.
One of their people did git gc
and that ~700MB turned into under 200MB. I learned a lesson here. You can use git gc
for housekeeping of your #git repository. It also does compression.
I wonder when could I master git an learn all of its wonderful features.
PS: In non profit services like codeberg, the resources you use aren't paid with your data. Then you have to be careful to not waste their resources. If you've got a huge repository on codeberg, it would be a good idea to do a git gc
so the resources would be available for other users.
