+* The git-pack-redundant(1) command can be used to remove redundant pack files.
+  The subcommand is unusably slow and the reason why nobody reports it as a
+  performance bug is suspected to be the absense of users. We have nominated
+  the command for removal and have started to emit a user-visible warning in
+  c3b58472be (pack-redundant: gauge the usage before proposing its removal,
+  2020-08-25) whenever the command is executed.
++
+So far there was a single complaint about somebody still using the command, but
+that complaint did not cause us to reverse course. On the contrary, we have
+doubled down on the deprecation and starting with 4406522b76 (pack-redundant:
+escalate deprecation warning to an error, 2023-03-23), the command dies unless
+the user passes the `--i-still-use-this` option.
++
+There have not been any subsequent complaints, so this command will finally be
+removed.
