* feat: add git-delete-gone-branches command Adds a new command to delete local branches whose remote-tracking branch has been deleted (shown as [gone] in git branch -vv). This is a common need after PRs are merged and remote branches are cleaned up, leaving stale local branches behind. Features: - Deletes all local branches with a gone remote in one command - --dry-run / -n flag to preview branches before deletion Closes #1220 * Address PR review feedback on git-delete-gone-branches - Use git for-each-ref instead of git branch -vv to avoid false positives from commit messages containing ': gone]' - Add interactive confirmation prompt by default; skip with -f/--force - Add -p/--prune flag to run git fetch --prune before checking - Add generated man page .1 and .html files * Use GitHub profile for author contact in man page * Fix gone-branch detection with nobracket format

git-delete-gone-branches(1) -- Delete branches whose remote is gone
|
|
====================================================================
|
|
|
|
## SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
`git-delete-gone-branches` [-n|--dry-run] [-f|--force] [-p|--prune]
|
|
|
|
## DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Deletes all local branches whose remote-tracking branch has been deleted.
|
|
This commonly happens after a pull request is merged and the remote branch
|
|
is removed. By default, lists the branches and prompts for confirmation
|
|
before deleting.
|
|
|
|
## OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
-n, --dry-run
|
|
|
|
Show the branches that would be deleted without actually deleting them.
|
|
|
|
-f, --force
|
|
|
|
Skip the confirmation prompt and delete branches immediately.
|
|
|
|
-p, --prune
|
|
|
|
Run `git fetch --prune` before checking for gone branches, to ensure
|
|
remote-tracking refs are up to date.
|
|
|
|
## EXAMPLES
