How to find the N largest files in a git repository?

Question

I wanted to find the 10 largest files in my repository. The script I came up with is as follows:

REP_HOME_DIR=
max_huge_files=         


        

Answer 1

I found another way to do it:

git ls-tree -r -t -l --full-name HEAD | sort -n -k 4 | tail -n 10
