I have a large git repository with 17 years of history. After converting it with svn2git, I usually do a 'git repack -a -d -f'. This says 'Nothing new to pack.' Then if I push it to the server (in my case Bit Bucket), and then locate the repository on the server and do repack, it repacks the whole repository. I would like to be able to always repack the whole repo if possible. I can't figure out what the changes are between pushing to the server, that allows the repack. Note, there are no changes made to the repository between the client and server.

The output you are seeing comes from these source lines:
Here
names.nris the number of SHA-1 ID lines read from thegit pack-objectscommand, when run with the arguments provided in the argv and environment computed earlier in this same code.What's happening in this case is that whatever
svn2gitutility you are using is building a single pack file, and for whatever reason,git pack-objectsis choosing to leave that file alone.What I cannot explain is why
-a -d -fdid not force a repack, because it should. Thegit pack-objectscommand should have generated a new pack file with new compression. (I suppose one possibility is thatgit pack-objectsis simply failing entirely on your particular system, but then you should get a complaint about that, too.)
