# Housekeeping
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_**Note:** This feature was [introduced][ce-2371] in GitLab 8.4_
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
|

|
|
The housekeeping function runs [`git gc`][man] on the current project Git
|
||
|
|
repository.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`git gc` runs a number of housekeeping tasks, such as compressing file
|
||
|
|
revisions (to reduce disk space and increase performance) and removing
|
||
|
|
unreachable objects which may have been created from prior invocations of
|
||
|
|
`git add`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can find this option under your **[Project] > Settings**.
