The object files are redownloaded after fetching from remote

[aminya]

I have written a script to remove some of the folders that we don't need to track to reduce the size of the repository. After running the script, the size of my repo becomes 15MB. When I git push -force to update the Github repository, it works without issues. However, when I clone the repository again, the size of the clone is 150 MB. Which means the objects files are still in the history. How can I fix this issue?

Pushing all the branches fixes the issue.

git push --force --all origin
