Subject: gc: make --prune useful again by accepting an optional parameter
X-Git-Tag: v1.6.2-rc1~8^2
X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=58e9d9d472ff4dbc6cfbf7459878778c739395eb;p=git.git

gc: make --prune useful again by accepting an optional parameter

With this patch, "git gc --no-prune" will not prune any loose (and
dangling) object, and "git gc --prune=5.minutes.ago" will prune
all loose objects older than 5 minutes.

This patch benefitted from suggestions by Thomas Rast and Jan Krï¿œger.
