For 'git fast-import' which is not meant to be directly user operated
this makes sense. I don't think this is a good idea for 'git repack'
though. In the later case it is best if the user simply adjust right
away.
Also the warning text above could be less ambigous. Something like:
"max-pack-size is now in bytes, assuming --max-pack-size=%dm"
