        is on by default.
 
+--max-cruft-size=<n>::
+       When packing unreachable objects into a cruft pack, limit the
+       size of new cruft packs to be at most `<n>` bytes. Overrides any
+       value specified via the `gc.maxCruftSize` configuration. See
+       the `--max-cruft-size` option of linkgit:git-repack[1] for
+       more.

 --prune=<date>::
        Prune loose objects older than date (default is 2 weeks ago,
        overridable by the config variable `gc.pruneExpire`).
