I can envision an option to gc say "--drop-weak-links" which does
exactly what you describe.
Well, IIRC the need for this was one of the causes of "death" of 'prior'
header link proposal...
As I understood it, one of the causes of death of the "prior" link
proposal was that it was unclear if it pulled in the linked-to commits
upon fetch. In the "origin" case, the default is *not* to fetch them.
And that's WRONG. Both prior and origin must fetch them if they're
reference in the header.
