Description Szymon Brandys CLA 2011-06-14 05:58:08 EDT 
Steps:
1) Create a clone in Orion and add an extra remote to it
2) Fetch branches for the extra remote
3) Delete the remote from the clone

All branches of the remote will be removed from the view, however they are still in the repo configuration. We lost a reference to them, since the remote is removed and branches can not be deleted.

In the Git console or EGit, removing a remote does not remove remote branches neither. However we still have references to them to work with them later e.g. delete them.
