Caveat emptor, indeed.

I have in my /etc/gitconfig the following:

[repack]
   UseDeltaBaseOffset = true
[pack]
   compression = 9
[alias]
   packall = !rm -rf .git/ORIG_HEAD .git/FETCH_HEAD .git/index .git/logs .git/info/refs .git/objects/pack/pack-*.keep .git/refs/original .git/refs/patches .git/patches && git prune --expire now && git repack -a -d --window=200 && git gc

A subsequent "git packall" does the trick, but this is best done on an
otherwise idle repository.
