Thank you for giving me the idea to pursue this direction. The
replacement patch isn't too bad, and I think this is a much better
approach to satisfy the situation.

What do you think?

Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] maintenance: recommended schedule in register/start
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The 'git maintenance (register|start)' subcommands add the current
repository to the global Git config so maintenance will operate on that
repository. It does not specify what maintenance should occur or how
often.

If a user sets any 'maintenance.<task>.schedule' config value, then
they have chosen a specific schedule for themselves and Git should
respect that.

To make this process extremely simple for users, assume a default
schedule when no 'maintenance.<task>.schedule' or '...enabled' config
settings are concretely set. This is only an in-process assumption, so
future versions of Git could adjust this expected schedule.
