Description

We have several cases where git becomes extremely slow, with git status taking tens of seconds to finish. This is because jgit doesn't periodically do git gc and garbage accumulate.

We should do a git gc periodically, perhaps once a week, or at each rudder boot.

I put that in 5.0 as it is a bug, but depending of complexity it may end in 6.0 or 6.1.
