Re: Make "git gc" pack all refs by default

Linus Torvalds [off-list ref] writes:

Also, make the default for refs packing just be an unambiguous "do it", 
rather than "do it by default only for non-bare repositories". If you want 
that behaviour, you can always just add a

	[gc]
		packrefs = notbare

in your ~/.gitconfig file, but I don't actually see why bare would be any 
different (except for the broken reason that http-fetching used to be 
totally broken, and not doing it just meant that it didn't even get 
fixed in a timely manner!).

Boy, you are a lot more aggressive than me.

But the fix was in v1.5.0 and we had two feature releases since
then, so it's a good time to do this.  Thanks.
