That should clear out any unreachable objects. Are we sure that the objects in question are, in fact, unreachable? Try: git rev-list --objects --all --reflog | wc -l which should give a count of reachable objects. I'd expect that to line up with that "git count-objects -v" reports after having run your gc above. In your original email, the discrepancy was between your "original" repository and the one that had round-tripped to a clone. Is it possible there are refs in the original that did not get pushed? Try comparing "git for-each-ref" in each repository. We also consider objects in the index to be reachable for packing. Could your original perhaps have some uncommitted objects mentioned in the index? -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
