Could we possibly just shorten the synopsis to something like this?

"git repack [<options>]"

As Junio mentioned here [1], this could be a more "modern" style?
Since the OPTIONS chunk below gives a more detailed usage, I
think we can get rid of the redundancy in the SYNOPSIS. And it also
helps with the aesthetic and clarity.
