Do note that there might be branches with unmerged changes, I don't think we should just automatically delete those without reflecting over its content. Although these branch might be stray now, there could be pieces there that someone else could use at a later point. As for old feature/fix branches that has been merged, I'm +1 to cleanup up those. -- Erik
