QUESTION: How can I clean disk space after watching video?

[a-a-k]

I noticed that my disk lost about 20gb of it's space after every launching, but I can't found any temp files or something. And I'm not recording video, just watching on-the-fly. What cleaning up stuff should I do?

That's odd. It does make a temp file gource-{random string} in your temporary files directory (/tmp/ or in %TEMP% on Windows) while running containing the generated history log file, but it should get deleted when Gource is closed. That file wouldn't normally be very big. 20 gigs sounds like you might be capturing the output (e.g. with -o or --output-ppm-stream)

What command line are you using?

[a-a-k]

gource --output-custom-log c:\repo1.txt C:\repo1
gource --output-custom-log c:\repo2.txt C:\repo2

Get-Content c:\repo1.txt, c:\repo2.txt | sort | Set-Content c:\combined.txt

gource --logo c:\logo.png -e 0.45 --seconds-per-day 2.5 -f -1280x720 --auto-skip-seconds 1 --multi-sampling --stop-at-end --highlight-users --hide mouse,progress --file-idle-time 25 --max-files 0 --background-colour 000000 --font-size 23 --output-ppm-stream d:\gource.ppm --output-framerate 30 --hide-filenames --start-date "2020-01-01" c:\combined.txt

C:\\ffmpeg\\bin\\ffmpeg -y -r 60 -f image2pipe -vcodec ppm -i d:\gource.ppm -vcodec libx264 -preset medium -pix_fmt yuv420p -crf 1 -threads 0 -bf 0 d:\gource.x264.mp4

That's script I'm using via PowerShell on Windows 10. Losing disk space is not related to ffmpeg and gource.ppm, it's happening independent.
