| 15 | DESCRIPTION | |
| 16 | ----------- | |
| 3991e910 | 17 | This program searches the `$GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY` for all objects that currently |
| 61f693bd | 18 | exist in a pack file as well as the independent object directories. |
| e31bb3bb JH |
19 | |
| 20 | All such extra objects are removed. | |
| 21 | ||
| 22 | A pack is a collection of objects, individually compressed, with delta | |
| 23 | compression applied, stored in a single file, with an associated index file. | |
| 24 | ||

25 | Packs are used to reduce the load on mirror systems, backup engines, |
| 26 | disk storage, etc. | |
