Actually, the best command is 

git gc

which does a repack (into a single pack file rather than an incremenal),
and then removes all the objects now in the pack.  If, like me, you work
on temporary branches which you keep rebasing, you can add a --prune to
gc which will erase all unreferenced objects as it packs (use this one
with care.  I usually never use it but run a git prune -n just to see
what would be removed, and then run git prune separately if it looks
OK).
