• e2fsprogs: Error: Repository size 537583616 exceeds 500 MiB

    Hi,

    I was recently looking at the tracker page for e2fsprogs, and I
    noticed that there was the VFS watch error: "Failed to analyze the VCS repository. Please troubleshoot and fix the issue."

    Looking at this this page [1] the complaint seems to be: "Repository
    size 537583616 exceeds 500 MiB, blocking it". However, looking at the e2fsprogs git repo, the bare repo (just the git packs) is only 43
    megs, and the checked out working tree is 33 megs. I'm not sure why
    the repo on VCS watch is over 500 MiB, but could it be that it's in
    deperate need of having a "git gc" being run on it?

    Thanks,
