Hi Johannes,

I understand what you mean. In my opinion, An option to make git-gui
"ignore" loose objects (disable the automatic check) does not
challenge total control over the repository.

Sorry, I don't follow. A limit to what?

I'm struggling to see the reasoning for the loose objects check (and
popup) to happen in git-gui the first place. Why does git-gui take it
upon itself to automatically perform this check? Is loose objects a
"gui" issue?
