Hi,

this patch series introduces a new "reflog-expire" task to
git-maintenance(1). This task is designed to plug a gap when the "gc"
task is disabled, as there is no way to expire reflog entries in that
case.

This patch series has been inspired by the discussion at [1]. I consider
it to be another step into the direction of replacing git-gc(1) and
allowing for more flexible maintenance strategies overall. Next steps
Hmm, I don't know what you have in mind, but just as a data-point, I have
never used, and have no inclination to use, git-maintenance. However, I do
use git-gc extensively: at least once (times the number of repos fetched
which have changes) per day, pretty much every day! :)

ATB,
Ramsay Jones
