hg-git: delete a git-branch with git, hg: pull or clone (again)

[Uwe Brauer]

Hi

I CC this to the mercurial list since there are also hg-git users, that
might not read the hg-git mailing list that often.


I never tried this before. 

    1. I have a git repository

    2. I cloned it with hg-git but using the standard setting that is,
       git branches are imported as bookmarks

    3. I deleted a git branch on remote: git push origin --delete mac_init

    4. Then I either pulled or cloned again.

The graph is different:

So what is the conclusion. Whenever a git branch is deleted the safest
thing is to clone again?
