I've used git commands to delete several branches that had stgit
active on it.  Doing that has left a bunch of clutter in the .git
directory. Is there a stgit command to remove all the clutter from
branches that no longer exist? I'd like to use the branch names again
but the clutter is interfering.
You can create the branch back with GIT and run "stg branch --delete
--force", though I don't guarantee it will work (BTW, I only recently
relaxed the branch deletion rules in StGIT so that it doesn't complain
of missing files and completes the operation, so you should use the
latest HEAD).
how about a 'stg gc' command that gets rid of all the inaccessible clutter?
