Yes.
I'm slightly in favor of adding "--quiet", because even with this option
we see some output:
$ git gc --auto --quiet
Auto packing your repository for optimum performance. You may also
run "git gc" manually. See "git help gc" for more information.
A compromise would be to reduce this message to the first sentence if
--quiet was given. This way users who push via ssh or locally get a short
explanation why "git push" does not finish immediately[*]; and git-daemon
logs only a one-liner in the syslog, which might be useful, too.
[*] Skipping the hint to "run git gc manually" would even be good in this
case, because the hint pertains the remote repository, not the one from
which "git push" was issued.
