git gc/prune runs again and again

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
