git-gui pops up a dialog that says precisely that, and gives you the
choice of repacking right then and there, or skip it.

As for truly automatic repacking after commands such as fetch, it
could probably be a config option (defaulting to "on"). It'd be
important to have "press any key to abort repacking (with no ill
effects)" type funtctionality, though.
