This reverts commit 9b088c4e394df84232cfd37aea78349a495b09c1.
Protecting 'mature' objects does not make it any safer. We should
admit that git-prune is inherently unsafe when run in parallel with
other operations without involving unwarranted locking overhead,
and with the latest git, even rebase and reset would not immediately
create crufts anyway.
This option gives grace period to objects that are unreachable
from the refs from getting pruned.
The default value is 24 hours and may be changed using
gc.prunegrace.

Since c869753e, core.filemode is hardwired to false on Cygwin.
So this test had no chance to succeed, since an early commit
(changing just the filemode) failed, and therefore all subsequent
tests.

The logic in an earlier round to detect reflog entries that
point at a broken commit was not sufficient. Just like we do
not trust presense of a commit during pack transfer (we trust
only our refs), we should not trust a commit's presense, even if
the tree of that commit is complete.
A repository that had reflog enabled on some of the refs that
was rewound and then run git-repack or git-prune from older
versions of git can have reflog entries that point at a commit
that still exist but lack commits (or trees and blobs needed for
that commit) between it and some commit that is reachable from
one of the refs.
This revamps the logic -- the definition of "broken commit"
becomes: a commit that is not reachable from any of the refs and
there is a missing object among the commit, tree, or blob
objects reachable from it that is not reachable from any of the
refs. Entries in the reflog that refer to such a commit are
expired.
Since this computation involves traversing all the reachable
objects, i.e. it has the same cost as 'git prune', it is enabled
only when a new option --fix-stale. Fortunately, once this is
run, we should not have to ever worry about missing objects,
because the current prune and pack-objects know about reflogs
and protect objects referred by them.
Unfortunately, this will be absolutely necessary to help people
migrate to the newer prune and repack.
