After thinking a bit about it, I tend to agree with what Linus
said, and would vote for the simplicity of the older way.  From
usage point of view, git-repack is primarily about repacking,
and the -d option is a funny exception applicable to -a case,
only because it is so obvious (i.e. after repacking everything
into one, it is obvious any other packs are unneeded).  We might
even want to make the "-a" flag to imply "-a -d" there.
