NAME
     git-pack-redundant - Find redundant pack files

SYNOPSIS
     git pack-redundant [ --verbose ] [ --alt-odb ] < --all | .pack filename ... >


DESCRIPTION
     This program computes which packs in your repository are
     redundant. The output is suitable for piping to xargs rm if
     you are in the root of the repository.

     git pack-redundant accepts a list of objects on standard
     input. Any objects given will be ignored when checking which
     packs are required. This makes the following command useful
     when wanting to remove packs which contain unreachable
     objects.

     git fsck --full --unreachable | cut -d ' ' -f3 | \ git
     pack-redundant --all | xargs rm

OPTIONS
     --all
         Processes all packs. Any filenames on the command line
         are ignored.

     --alt-odb
         Don't require objects present in packs from alternate
         object directories to be present in local packs.

     --verbose
         Outputs some statistics to stderr. Has a small
         performance penalty.
