# Trimming a Repository to a Single Line of Business

The trim command can be used against a repository on the file system to eliminate all of the content unrelated to a particular line of business. The command to trim a repository to a single line of business is:

    ReqAdmin trim [-v] <Repository path> <Line of business id>

Running this command opens a repository, inspects every content item and REQ file, and (if it was not used by the line of business specified) it will be removed.
