# Tidying up your local and remote repository
# Delete local branches that have been deleted on the remote
To remote tracking between local and deleted remote branches use
git fetch -p
you can then use
git branch -vv
to see which branches are no longer being tracked.
Branches that are no longer being tracked will be in the form below, containing 'gone'
branch 12345e6 [origin/branch: gone] Fixed bug
you can then use a combination of the above commands, looking for where 'git branch -vv' returns 'gone' then using '-d' to delete the branches
git fetch -p && git branch -vv | awk '/: gone]/{print $1}' | xargs git branch -d
