+a future version of Git. Because it can only remove entire duplicate
+packs and not individual duplicate objects, it is generally not a useful
+tool for reducing repository size. You are better off using <code>git gc</code> to
+do so, which will put objects into a new pack, removing duplicates.</p></div>
