This is just a start so I can get some feedback. Some things still missing: 1) "git remote prune <remote>" calls warn_dangling_symref(), but "git fetch --prune" does not. I ran out of time tonight to refactor warn_dangling_symref() to do something more intelligent than just spew to stdout (which doesn't get along with fetch, which spews to stderr...). 2) Perhaps "git remote update --prune" should be refactored to call "git fetch --prune". If so, then fetch should gain a "--prune-only" option so that "git remote prune" can just call "got fetch --prune-only". 3) Perhaps add a config option for users who wish to prune by default. Thoughts, comments, flames?
