Create 'git gc' to perform common maintenance operations.
Junio asked for a 'git gc' utility which users can execute on a
regular basis to perform basic repository actions such as:
* pack-refs --prune
* reflog expire
* repack -a -d
* prune
* rerere gc
So here is a command which does exactly that. The parameters fed
to reflog's expire subcommand can be chosen by the user by setting
configuration options in .git/config (or ~/.gitconfig), as users may
want different expiration windows for each repository but shouldn't
be bothered to remember what they are all of the time.
