(It might be a good idea to use a random slot here.)

Actually, there is a 'git prune --expire 2.weeks.ago --no-progress'
running under the 'git gc --auto --quiet', and I don't want to drop
the expiry time lightly.

Run "git prune". 2.2.2 hides this suggestion to run git-prune in this
case. The next git version will show it back.

git gc/prune runs again and again

2015-11-03 Thread Andreas Krey
Hi all,

I have a bit of an annoying behaviour in git gc;
there is a repo I regularly do a fetch in, and
this kicks off a gc/prune every time. I remember
there being a heuristic with being that many files
in .git/objects/17 as the gc trigger.

Which is unfortunate if the gc does not actually
reduce the number of files there because they
aren't old enough => gc comes right back.

What can I do there? (This git is a bit old, 2.2.2)

Andreas
