The word "prune" or "purge" are perhaps a bit unfortunate, they seem to 
imply that something serious is happening (as Basil thought).  Once again 
no actual data is removed, the only thing that is removed is a pointer to 
a particular commit.  Two people (Lars and Andrea) regretted upthread that 
removing a branch does not remove them in local repositories, and I 
remember at least one recent incident in which someone was using the 
native-comp branch after it had been removed.  Which is why I suggested to 
set that configuration variable... but I preach in the wilderness.
