Hello,

# git gc --auto Auto packing the repository in background for optimum performance. See "git help gc" for manual housekeeping.

and calls in the background:

25618 1 0 32451 884 1 14:20 ? 00:00:00 git gc --auto 25639 25618 51 49076 49428 0 14:20 ? 00:00:07 git prune --expire 2.weeks.ago

# git count-objects -v count: 6039 size: 65464 in-pack: 185432 packs: 1 size-pack: 46687 prune-packable: 0 garbage: 0 size-garbage: 0
