I haven't run more than git-gc in a while, because I have local clones and didn't want to figure out how to prune. Hm, now that I've looked it up:

git prune -- $(cd ../linux-clone/ && echo $(git-rev-parse --all))

just gets me the git-prune usage message. In fact, contrary to the prune man page, git-prune doesn't seem to accept any <head> arguments. Isn't this a bug? I'm on 1.5.0.3.31.ge47c.
