| 3 | --- |
| 4 | |
| 5 | ## Your Task |
| 6 | |
| 7 | You need to execute the following bash commands to clean up stale local branches that have been deleted from the remote repository. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | ## Commands to Execute |
| 10 | |
| 11 | 1. **First, list branches to identify any with [gone] status** |
| 12 | Execute this command: |
| 13 | ```bash |
| 14 | git branch -v |
| 15 | ``` |
| 16 | |
| 17 | Note: Branches with a '+' prefix have associated worktrees and must have their worktrees removed before deletion. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | 2. **Next, identify worktrees that need to be removed for [gone] branches** |
| 20 | Execute this command: |
| 21 | ```bash |
| 22 | git worktree list |
| 23 | ``` |
| 24 | |
| 25 | 3. **Finally, remove worktrees and delete [gone] branches (handles both regular and worktree branches)** |
| 26 | Execute this command: |
| 27 | ```bash |
| 28 | # Process all [gone] branches, removing '+' prefix if present |
| 29 | git branch -v | grep '\[gone\]' | sed 's/^[+* ]//' | awk '{print $1}' | while read branch; do |
| 30 | echo "Processing branch: $branch" |
| 31 | # Find and remove worktree if it exists |
| 32 | worktree=$(git worktree list | grep "\\[$branch\\]" | awk '{print $1}') |
| 33 | if [ ! -z "$worktree" ] && [ "$worktree" != "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)" ]; then |
| 34 | echo " Removing worktree: $worktree" |
| 35 | git worktree remove --force "$worktree" |
| 36 | fi |
| 37 | # Delete the branch |
| 38 | echo " Deleting branch: $branch" |
| 39 | git branch -D "$branch" |
| 40 | done |
| 41 | ``` |
| 42 | |
| 43 | ## Expected Behavior |
| 44 | |
| 45 | After executing these commands, you will: |
| 46 | |
| 47 | - See a list of all local branches with their status |
| 48 | - Identify and remove any worktrees associated with [gone] branches |
| 49 | - Delete all branches marked as [gone] |
| 50 | - Provide feedback on which worktrees and branches were removed |
| 51 | |
| 52 | If no branches are marked as [gone], report that no cleanup was needed. |
