   Savannah now has a monthly cron job that does some git maintenance
   on all repos (thanks to Jim Meyering).  Does this suffice for your
   needs?

   [script]

Yes, partially (one of two) -- thanks!

(In June, i had somehow pushed an entirely separate dag into the ‘rcs’
repo (from a private repo).  As a result, ‘git fsck --root’ showed two
lines, and of course, the private dag was accessible if one could guess
a valid commit id (SHA1).  The fix is to remove all references and gc.
I did the former immediately, w/in 5 minutes of discovering the error,
and it looks to me that the script does the latter.  I confirm that a
cgit (web) probe now yields "Bad object id", as expected.  Cool!)

The other need (two of two), i will address in the other thread.
