cleaning up large git repos

there are times when people commit very large files or things that shouldn't have been committed. It isn't as simple as just doing a git rm to get it out of your history and reduce the git repo s size.

To see your git size run: git count-objects -v
The size-pack value is the size of your repository when it is pushed to a remote server. The size-pack value is in kilobytes.
You can use git to clean up files, but I would suggest using BFG, it works really well and is much faster than git at cleaning up repos.
BFG Repo-Cleaner by rtyley
It's important that you use the --mirror command when doing this, if you don't you will find yourself deleting the content and finding it coming back when you pull.

java -jar ..\bfg-1.12.16.jar -D *file_regex*
git clone --mirror ssh://git@...
git reflog expire --expire=now --all && git gc --prune=now --aggressive
git push
