How to remove stale remote-tracking branches

After deleting branches on github, or any other tracked remote, you can remove references to deleted branches without having to fetch changes by simply using the remote prune sub-commands:

$ git remote prune origin

Another remote:

$ git remote add bitbucket git@bitbucket.org...
$ git remote prune bitbucket
