Remove remote merged branches

You can remove all remote branches that have been merged to master in one line.

git branch -r --merged master | ack -v master | sed -e 's/\// :/' | xargs -n2 git push

The sed expression should probably not be global, it breaks for branch names with slashes in them.

sed -e 's/\// :/'
