| 14 | DESCRIPTION | |
| 15 | ----------- | |
| 9c2d28c7 | 16 | This program searches the `$GIT_OBJECT_DIR` for all objects that currently |
| 61f693bd | 17 | exist in a pack file as well as the independent object directories. |
| e31bb3bb JH |
18 | |
| 19 | All such extra objects are removed. | |
| 20 | ||
| 21 | A pack is a collection of objects, individually compressed, with delta | |
| 22 | compression applied, stored in a single file, with an associated index file. | |
| 23 | ||

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