Issue - when you work with a large team, the git repository may have many branch creation and deletion operations, sometimes we may getting git update failed, when we try to update the whole repository. Solution - Tyr > git fetch -p -p, --prune After fetching, remove any remote-tracking references that no longer exist on the remote. Tags are not subject to pruning if they are fetched only because of the default tag auto-following or due to a --tags option. However, if tags are fetched due to an explicit refspec (either on the command line or in the remote configuration, for example if the remote was cloned with the --mirror option), then they are also subject to pruning.
