Bash script to remove merged branches both locally and remotely (from "origin" only). Parses all REPOs within current folder, checkouts "master" on each of the REPOs

remove-merged-branches.sh

function remove_remote_branch() {
  branch=$1
  git push origin --delete $branch
}

function remove_local_branch() {
  branch=$1
  git branch -d $branch
}

PROTECTED="\(develop\|master\|qa\|sandbox\)"

for folder in `ls -1d */` ; do
  cwd=`pwd`
  git=${folder%/}
  echo "--"
  echo "Working with $git:"
  cd $git
  git checkout master
  git pull origin
  git remote prune origin
  for branch in `git branch -r --merged origin/master | grep -vw $PROTECTED | grep -w "origin" | perl -e "while(<>) { s/origin\///g; s/ //g; print $_;}"` ; do 
    remove_remote_branch $branch
  done
  for branch in `git branch --merged origin/master | grep -vw $PROTECTED` ; do
    remove_local_branch $branch
  done
  git remote prune origin
  cd ..
done

Processes all the repos from the current folder!
