Description
I got stumped by how to use `filter-repo`, but I worked it out afterwards using the `--blob-callback` option. https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/35707

Hi
I'm
James
Ramsay
group
product
manager,
collab
mrs.,
to
follow
up
to
my
video
about
reducing
repository
file
size
in
this
video
I'm,
going
to
take
a
look
at
LFS
and
how
to
clean
out
large
LFS
files
that
you
don't
want
any
more
than
aren't
referenced
by
the
repository
and
look
at
some
of
the
challenges
associated
with
that.
So
I've
got
an
LMS
file.
I'm
headed
to
this
repo
and
I'll.
Just
push
that
up
into
the
server.
B
B
B
A
A
And
we'll
just
follow
this
first
step.
That
should
probably
be
enough
because
I'm
not
going
to
put
it
in
a
birch
request.
Reading
up
anything
else,
so
there
shouldn't
be
any
keep
around
ref
summer
dress
that
reference
this
file,
so
that
means
I
won't
have
to
do
step
two.
If
you've
watched
the
previous
video
you'll
know
what
I'm
talking
about
that
I'm
just
trying
to
save
myself
a
little
bit
of
time.
A
A
B
A
B
Because
this
is
a
bear
repository,
this
won't
work.
Alex.
B

B

A

So
the
next
question
would
be:
how
do
we?
How
do
we
clean
that
up?
If
we
look
in
so
this
is
on
the
server?
If
we
look
at
the
repository
size,
you
can
see
that
the
actual
repo
size
is
still
very
small,
because
there's
no
binary
files
because
they
were
in
LFS.
So
we
want
to
work
out
how
we
get
rid
of
those
LFS
files,
and
since
here
that
we
can
run
this
task.
B
B
A
B
B
A
And
back
with
my
cup
of
tea
and
you'll
see
that
the
file
sizes
are
now
gone
down,
so
it
looks
like
this.
This
tasks
up
here
remove
unrest
for
in
still
FS
files,
orphan
LFS
file,
references
that
has
an
impact
on
repo
size
calculation
and
then
in
theory,
the
file
will
actually
be
removed
from
the
hard
drive
or
object
storage
at
some
time
in
the
future,
with
some
scheduled
job,
or
it
can
be
run
immediately
so
that
cleanup
task
will
happen.
A
A
Cleanup
job
probably
also
makes
sense
to
run
this
as
part
of
housekeeping
generally,
so
we'll
be
looking
into
that
and
I
think
we'll
also
look
at
the
case
whether
we
can
speed
up
so
when
you
run
garbage
collection
housekeeping.
It
updates
straightaway
so
looks
like
reducing
the
file
size
of
LFS
objects
is
possible
with
administrator
intervention,
but
I
think
it's
an
overcome
of
all
obstacle.
So
there
you
go
have
a
great
afternoon
bye.
