Git aliases to prune merged branches

gistfile1.txt

[alias]
  prunelocal = !sh -c 'git branch -d `git branch --merged | grep -v "^*" | tr -d "\\n"`'
  pruneorigin = !sh -c 'git push origin `git branch -r --merged | grep \"^  origin/\" | grep -v "/master$" | sed "s/origin./:/g" | tr -d "\\n"`'

@ayust : agreed. I usually don't bother with shell alias coding style, but it's already hard enough to understand what the command does.
