If "--prune" is passed to gc, it still just calls "git prune". Otherwise, "prune --expire 2.weeks.ago" is called, where the grace period is overrideable by the config variable gc.pruneExpire. While adding a test to t5304-prune.sh (since it really tests the implicit call to "prune"), the original test for "prune --expire" is moved there from t1410-reflog.sh, where it did not belong. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> --- I am really tempted to reduce the grace period further, but I'd like to hear opinions first. Is 3.days.ago too short?
