Subject: git fetch with fetch.prune set bug?
Date: Fri, 20 Nov 2015 10:19:22 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <564F39FA.2030107@avirtualhome.com> (raw)

Hi,

Doing the following commands:
$ git config fetch.prune true
$ git co -b bug/bug-1
Switched to a new branch 'bug/bug-1'
$ touch bugfix
$ git add .
$ git commit -a
$ git push --set-upstream origin bug/bug-1

 * [new branch]      bug/bug-1 -> bug/bug-1
Branch bug/bug-1 set up to track remote branch bug/bug-1 from origin.
$ git fetch origin bug/bug-1:refs/remotes/origin/bug/bug-1
From github.com:petervanderdoes/Testing
 x [deleted]         (none)     -> origin/bug/bug-1
$ git branch -r
  origin/master
$ git branch
* bug/bug-1
  master

The branch still exists on the remote repository.
Is it correct that the git fetch deletes the remote reference?


Peter
