Git Tidying up your local and remote repository Delete local branches that have been deleted on the remote
Example
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
