NAME

|

|
|
git-maintenance - Run tasks to optimize Git repository data
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
[verse]
|
||
|
|
'git maintenance' run [<options>]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
Run tasks to optimize Git repository data, speeding up other Git commands
|
||
|
|
and reducing storage requirements for the repository.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Git commands that add repository data, such as `git add` or `git fetch`,
|
||
|
|
are optimized for a responsive user experience. These commands do not take
|
||
|
|
time to optimize the Git data, since such optimizations scale with the full
|
||
|
|
size of the repository while these user commands each perform a relatively
|
||
|
|
small action.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `git maintenance` command provides flexibility for how to optimize the
|
||
|
|
Git repository.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
SUBCOMMANDS
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
run::
|
||
|
|
Run one or more maintenance tasks. If one or more `--task` options
|
||
|
|
are specified, then those tasks are run in that order. Otherwise,
|
||
|
|
the tasks are determined by which `maintenance.<task>.enabled`
|
||
|
|
config options are true. By default, only `maintenance.gc.enabled`
|
||
|
|
is true.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
TASKS
|
||
|
|
-----
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
commit-graph::
|
||
|
|
The `commit-graph` job updates the `commit-graph` files incrementally,
|
||
|
|
then verifies that the written data is correct. The incremental
|
||
|
|
write is safe to run alongside concurrent Git processes since it
|
||
|
|
will not expire `.graph` files that were in the previous
|
||
|
|
`commit-graph-chain` file. They will be deleted by a later run based
|
||
|
|
on the expiration delay.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
gc::
|
||
|
|
Clean up unnecessary files and optimize the local repository. "GC"
|
||
|
|
stands for "garbage collection," but this task performs many
|
||
|
|
smaller tasks. This task can be expensive for large repositories,
|
||
|
|
as it repacks all Git objects into a single pack-file. It can also
|
||
|
|
be disruptive in some situations, as it deletes stale data. See
|
||
|
|
linkgit:git-gc[1] for more details on garbage collection in Git.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OPTIONS
|
||
|
|
-------
|
||
|
|
--auto::
|
||
|
|
When combined with the `run` subcommand, run maintenance tasks
|
||
|
|
only if certain thresholds are met. For example, the `gc` task
|
||
|
|
runs when the number of loose objects exceeds the number stored
|
||
|
|
in the `gc.auto` config setting, or when the number of pack-files
|
||
|
|
exceeds the `gc.autoPackLimit` config setting.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
--quiet::
|
||
|
|
Do not report progress or other information over `stderr`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
--task=<task>::
|
||
|
|
If this option is specified one or more times, then only run the
|
||
|
|
specified tasks in the specified order. If no `--task=<task>`
|
||
|
|
arguments are specified, then only the tasks with
|
||
|
|
`maintenance.<task>.enabled` configured as `true` are considered.
|
||
|
|
See the 'TASKS' section for the list of accepted `<task>` values.
