.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
borg [common options] compact [options] REPOSITORY
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
This command frees repository space by compacting segments.
.sp
Use this regularly to avoid running out of space \- you do not need to use this
after each borg command though.
.sp
borg compact does not need a key, so it is possible to invoke it from the
client or also from the server.
.sp
Depending on the amount of segments that need compaction, it may take a while.
.sp
See \fIseparate_compaction\fP in Additional Notes for more details.

See \fIborg\-common(1)\fP for common options of Borg commands.
