I've found 100 for repack too low in the past, too, which is why
repack defaults to 1000 if no number is specified.  I think it
should hold for gc --auto, too.

I consider --repack is out-of-date now that we have gc --auto.  I'm in
favor of ripping out repack support in git-svn and just using gc --auto.

I'd much prefer that we run gc --auto at the end of every fetch instead
of doing so randomly for small fetches.
