Hello. My project name is egg-bot and I recently got an error warning me that my disk was almost full. It told me to use git prune; git gc and I did. But it never worked and when I typed it in the console all I got was
error: couldn’t write .git/logs/HEAD: No space left on device
error: couldn’t write .git/logs/refs/heads/master: No space left on device
error: failed to run reflog
If anyone could help me troubleshoot this problem I would really appreciate it.
Thank you.
Choose one of A or B …
A. Wait for Glitch support staff to assist with temporary extra space.
B. Delete git repository, Warning - this deletes all your rewind history!
$ rm -rf .git
To prevent it happening again, ensure that data files that change regularly are stored in folder .data, or have an entry in .gitignore .
Also, ensure you are using pnpm rather than npm, because local node_modules takes up disk space on your project.
Good luck!
Run the Unix disk usage utility, du, on your home directory.
$ du -h -d 1 ~
5.0K /app/.config
68K /app/lib
1.9M /app/.git
49K /app/include
3.0K /app/etc
2.4M /app
In case you don’t immediately get a good idea where your storage quota is being eaten up, traverse down one of the larger folders and run the disk usage utility.
You get the idea.
Hello @MichTheKid, sorry about the trouble you’re having with your project. I can temporarily resize your project which will allow you to run git prune; git gc, but you should also make sure you are either keeping any frequently changing files in the provided .data folder or add their names to a file called .gitignore in the top folder of your project as well to prevent this from happening again. Let me know if you’d like me to resize and I can do that for you today.
Hello. I found a solution to my storage situation and have made sure I followed your suggestions. Thank you very much.
Glad you found a solution! Let me know if you have any other issues.
