# 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**.
