Can we get more than 10GB of storage in our repos?
I cannot build my project because of a lack of available storage space.
I have to purge my node_modules/ and .next/ folders just to run git gc --prune=now --aggressive
Sorry for the slow progress on updates here. We are actively working on increasing storage capacity.

No worries, Kirupa! Thanks for the update.
Is it safe to remove ~/.emu? I had ~5GB of files there, not sure if that was IDX or something I installed.
You can delete ~/.emu if you dont need the android emulator.
Thanks, I went ahead with it, but it seems to have repopulated itself…
Some details about it:
overlay on /home/user/.emu type overlay (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,lowerdir=/opt/nix:/ephemeral/nix,upperdir=/usr/local/monospace/caching/writedir/upper,workdir=/usr/local/monospace/caching/writedir/work,redirect_dir=on,uuid=on,metacopy=on)
I was able to remove it in the past, but now I’m getting device busy messages.
GPT: “Ah, your ~/.emu directory is an overlay filesystem mount. That explains why rm -rf can’t remove it — you need to unmount the overlay first before deletion.”
But I couldn’t unmount because not sudo. Not sure what to do, I was able to delete it before, something is actively using it.
In other news, I was able to prune my massive .git folder down to 8mb which helped. It somehow ballooned out of control after tracking some images and backup files I forgot to ignore early on in my project.
