Prune git branches

After deleting a git branch from a remote, the local copy will still exist. Delete/“prune” all local git branches that do not exist on the remote:

#!/bin/bash

git fetch -p && for branch in $(git for-each-ref --format '%(refname) %(upstream:track)' refs/heads | awk '$2 == "[gone]" {sub("refs/heads/", "", $1); print $1}'); do git branch -D $branch; done

exit $?
