SYNOPSIS
git repack [options]
DESCRIPTION
git repack consolidates loose objects into pack files, improving storage efficiency and access time. It reorganizes the repository's object database by combining individual loose objects into compressed packs.Repacking is useful after many small commits or after importing objects. The `-a -d` combination is common for aggressive repacking that removes redundant packs.
