Hi.
There is a project I have that requires some scripting, but I am
wondering if somebody already did something similar and there is a
package that I can just apt-get install.

I have no idea if it is possible to do it in place, but "git clone" and
"git fetch" have the --depth option. So you can specify how many last
commits you would like to have in the cloned repository.

You may try to boot from a live image and to check if up to date

Yeah, usrmerge is a bit wonky in these early stages. Part of the reason

Please elaborate. How do you work around the fact that Git is terrible
at removing data with a single repository?

Thanks, it might be exactly what I am looking for.

Something I played with recently was
https://packages.debian.org/stable/vcs/git-filter-repo
But you definitely want to run tests on real data before you decide
that deleting old data saves your anything, particularly with respect
to time.
If git is so efficient at storing this kind of data, then
