Reproduction request: Codex turn-diff checkpoint refs under refs/codex/turn-diffs/checkpoints/ may retain large git tree/blob objects in the p

What I found: Reporter on Codex Desktop 26.616.51431 measured 8476 loose objects about 101.86 GiB with zero commits and only Codex checkpoint refs present; cleanup described as reducing total project footprint from about 140 GB to about 5.7 GB. A commenter on #29388 describes confirming unreachable blobs via git fsck --unreachable, checking stashes and unreachable commits, then running git gc --prune to reclaim space while keeping HEAD and working-tree files intact, with caveat that Codex may recreate snapshots afterward.

Useful next check: Whether current Codex Desktop builds perform automatic pruning or ref retirement for superseded turn-diff checkpoints.
