I tend to agree that this is a housekeeping command for a local repository to control what are and what are not materialized in the working tree. It does not directly affect the history produced from there, similar to "git gc" is, so in that sense, I do not think we would miss it in the "list of usual commands". If I had to have it in some category, I do agree with the current code that it belongs to the "worktree" family, though.
