13DESCRIPTION
14-----------
15This program computes which packs in your repository
16are redundant. The output is suitable for piping to
17'xargs rm' if you are in the root of the repository.
18
9a888b75 19git-pack-redundant accepts a list of objects on standard input. Any objects
a6080a0a 20given will be ignored when checking which packs are required. This makes the
9a888b75
LS
21following command useful when wanting to remove packs which contain unreachable
22objects.
