Clean Gone Branches

Remove local git branches that have been deleted from the remote.

Process

1. **Update remote references**

  • Run `git fetch --prune`.

2. **Inspect local state**

  • Run `git branch -vv` to find branches marked as `[gone]`.
  • Run `git worktree list` to see whether any of those branches still have worktrees.

3. **Remove worktrees first**

  • For each `[gone]` branch that still has a worktree, remove the worktree before deleting the branch.

4. **Delete the gone branches**

  • Delete each local branch marked as `[gone]`.

5. **Report the result**

  • List removed worktrees and deleted branches.
  • If there are no `[gone]` branches, report that nothing needed cleanup.
