While this may be true for codebases which move forward quickly, what

project at all for days, weeks, months. It wouldn't be nice to eventually 
come back and discover that your in-progress work had been "garbage" 
collected for you.

I think this argues more for increasing the expiration period on
reflogs, if your project moves very slowly.
