Django doesn't delete files referenced by models upon their deletion (as file storage doesn't support transactions and files could perhaps be referenced by many instances(?)).
The collectgarbage command is the remedy for this - it compares the list of files in the DB with those in filetracker and deletes those missing in the DB with a few exceptions (sandboxes).
It should probably be ran with the
-v 3 --pretendflag first for sanity checks.This needs sio2project/filetracker#92 for listing filetracker files.
