[Geoserver-devel] Repo cleanup of 2.21-M0 tag (with m2 folders)

GeoServer GeoServer Developer

The recently made 2.21-M0 tag had two m2 folders:

  • src/m2
  • src/community/m2
···

Vastly increasing the checkout size (and causing our build server run run out of space).

If you fetched the 2.21-M0 tag count-objects will show:

git count-objects -vH
…
size-pack: 696.47 MiB

Torben and myself have removed 2.21-M0 tag (and added a clean 2.21-M0.1 tag).

To free up space in your local checkout:

git tag -d 2.21-M0
git reflog expire --expire-unreachable=now --all
git gc --prune=now

After the above:

git count-objects -vH

…
size-pack: 246.20 MiB shows:

As a further update, I’ve run this process on all the geoserver-* workspaces on the Jenkins build server, and freed up approx. 7 GB of space across the different 16 checkouts:

Before:
/dev/sda2 251G 177G 62G 74% /

After
/dev/sda2 251G 170G 69G 72% /

Cheers,
Torben
