There is a chance that the local references to remote branches are out of date when git-sweep runs. This can cause it to identify branches for deletion that do not actually exist on the remote.

To fix this, I think the --prune option should be used whenever git-sweep fetches from the remote.

This is needed to make sure that we don't try to delete a remote branch
that no longer exists. This fixes arc90#18.
