I believe that I recently saw an effort to make this incremental, perhaps related to the geometric repacking series? If that were the case, you could gc much more often cheaply. Perhaps it could be something done on every upload at some point the way that reflog effectively does on every update?
As Peff pointed out though, commit-graphs would still be a better way to go anyway since that is closer to their intent,
