Hi,

I keep getting cron mails from etckeeper:

Subject: Anacron job 'cron.daily' on maxwell

/etc/cron.daily/etckeeper:
Die Datenbank des Repositories wird für eine optimale Performance im
Hintergrund komprimiert.
Siehe "git help gc" für manuelles Aufräumen.


I frankly do not care about that, please mute that output.

At least `git gc` has a `--quiet` parameter, I'd guess there's ways to
make that happen for other operations as well.

Thanks.

Hi,

since it started now on a different machine, I read the
documentation again and I think this should fix it:

      gc.autoDetach
           Make git gc --auto return immediately and run in the
           background if the system supports it. Default is true.
