Well, problem solved! However, a bit differently than suggested. While looking for the syntax I have started by accident "git gc" for the repos in question. It ran for a short while. And the problem is no longer shown with git gui. So, my conclusion is that git gui doesn't do the same or at least not always. I have introduced the gc.auto setting after checking with git gui. Thanks for your advice
