I'm not sure I remember correctly but I think I've read on the git mailinglist that doing this in a cronjob on a repo which is in active use (pushed to) isn't the best idea. It could be that my memory is just wrong and it was git-prune which is unsafe but I want to mention it before you screw your repo bigtime.
