I'm not sure how slow `git gc --auto` is with a totally unpacked repository, but it guess it will be slow enough that some people might not want to do the gc initially. Not many people have complained about the size of the repoitory after cloning, so I think it should be OK to let users call `git gc` when they wish to. -- Felipe Contreras -- -- *** Please reply-to-all at all times *** *** (do not pretend to know who is subscribed and who is not) *** *** Please avoid top-posting. *** The msysGit Wiki is here: https://github.com/msysgit/msysgit/wiki - Github accounts are free.
