# git-findbig: find biggest objects in seconds
`git-findbig` is a faster way to search for biggest object occupying your git history. Useful when you have to cleanup git histories to fit your storage requirements.
## Installation
```
$ sudo make install
```
Or just copy `git-findbig.sh` to your preferred place where `$PATH` points.
## Usage
```
$ git findbig
```
## Advantages
- It's fast! It usually shows you *all* the ranking in seconds. Even in `linux`, the well-known huge repository, the search only takes 2 or 3 minutes.
- Works with bare repositories too.
- Works in submodules too. (However, it doesn't automatically search recursively.)
- Searches both for "packed" objects and "loose" objects.
