FAQPage Schema
How do I find and remove obsolete files from my repository?

To find obsolete files in your repository, analyze the codebase for build artifacts, unused source files, and stale configurations. This audit generates a prioritized list of recommended actions for safe, non-destructive removal to optimize your project structure.

What is the best way to identify unused code and build artifacts in a project?

The best way to identify unused code and build artifacts is by running a comprehensive repository audit that performs dead code analysis and artifact detection. This review highlights outdated or orphaned files so you can safely plan your cleanup efforts.

Can I automatically delete temporary files and backup files during repository cleanup?

You cannot automatically delete temporary and backup files during repository cleanup, as the analysis provides non-destructive recommendations. You must review the suggested list of files for removal or update before executing any deletions to ensure no important configs are lost.

Does repository cleanup analysis work for reducing overall repository size?

Repository cleanup analysis works for reducing overall repository size by systematically identifying unnecessary assets and build outputs. Removing these unused files streamlines maintenance and ensures a tidy, efficient codebase suitable for ongoing development.

How do I audit stale configurations without breaking my project?

To audit stale configurations without breaking your project, use a non-destructive repository analysis that reviews configurations and flags obsolete files. This ensures you receive safe recommendations to review before any deletions occur, protecting your important setup files.
