Clean Gone Branches

Execute the following to clean up stale local branches deleted from the remote.

Steps

1. •

   List branches to identify [gone] status

   bash

   git branch -v
   

   Note: Branches with '+' prefix have worktrees that must be removed first.

2. •

   Identify worktrees for [gone] branches

   bash

   git worktree list
   

3. •

   Remove worktrees and delete [gone] branches

   bash

   git branch -v | grep '\[gone\]' | sed 's/^[+* ]//' | awk '{print $1}' | while read branch; do
     echo "Processing branch: $branch"
     worktree=$(git worktree list | grep "\\[$branch\\]" | awk '{print $1}')
     if [ ! -z "$worktree" ] && [ "$worktree" != "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)" ]; then
       echo "  Removing worktree: $worktree"
       git worktree remove --force "$worktree"
     fi
     echo "  Deleting branch: $branch"
     git branch -D "$branch"
   done
   

Expected Outcome

• •List all local branches with status
• •Remove worktrees for [gone] branches
• •Delete branches marked as [gone]
• •Report which worktrees and branches were removed

If no branches are marked as [gone], report that no cleanup was needed.
