There is a cron task that periodically repacks all of the repositories once a month.

Here is the emacs related output from the last run. ./emacs-epackage.git... ./emacs-epackage.git 740 KiB->740 (saved 0% in 1s) ./emacs-i18n.git... ./emacs-i18n.git 116 KiB->116 (saved 0% in 0s) ./emacs-tiny-tools.git... ./emacs-tiny-tools.git 7096 KiB->7096 (saved 0% in 1s) ./emacs.git... ./emacs.git 1218808 KiB->1074624 (saved 11.82% in 233s) ./emacs/elpa.git... ./emacs/elpa.git 28248 KiB->26772 (saved 5.22% in 5s) Bob
