Hi Thomas,

For removing "stale" branches there are some scripts available from sources
like StackOverflow.  I know I had one before, which was very useful as we
too created branches for each defect.

As for the other, more NetBeans related question, to see all branches
available, I usually go "right click file -> Git -> Remote -> Fetch..."
The dialog shown here shows all the branches in my repository.

Regards

John
