Re: git gc does not discard objects found in alternate unless the alternate storage is packed

Is it the intended behaviour?

This is the current (intended) behavior.  We have never pruned an
object from a repository unless the object is packed in the shared
alternate repository.  See git-prune-packed's man page.  The prune
logic for loose objects only deletes objects which are in packs,
and it doesn't care where that pack came from.
