Create rake task that will run git repack -a on all repositories
This is the result of the discussion in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/issues/510#note_1116496
Summary:
git 2.x came with performance improvements. These improvements are on by default for servers using git 2 but it is possible that some old repositores would benefit from git repack
.
According to Dmitriy's comment
- Create the rake task
- Run on dev
