I thought the whole point of "gc --auto" was to have something that does not lose/prune any objects, even the ones that do not seem to be referenced from anywhere. That is why invocations of "git gc --auto" do not say --prune as you saw the second patch, and the repack command "gc --auto" runs is "repack -d -l" instead of "repack -a -d -l", which means that it does run git-prune-packed after repacking but not git-prune. Maybe I am missing something... - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
