If gc --auto happens in the middle of e.g. a rebase, then it's possible that there were more commits that were supposed to happen later. You'd need to run 'git rebase --continue' after interrupting the gc in that case. Interruption should never cause data loss, and as much as possible commands should finish their work before running gc --auto. Please let us know if some command is violating that.
