John L. Villalovos 126e298214 Handle case where 'git remote prune' needs to be run
Handle the case when this error occurs:
    error: some local refs could not be updated; try running
     'git remote prune origin' to remove any old, conflicting branches

This is usually caused by a reference getting changed from a file to a
directory.

For example:
  Initially someone creates a branch 'foo' and it is stored as:
    .git/refs/remotes/origin/foo

  Then later on it is decided to change the layout structure where 'foo'
  is a directory with branches below it:
    .git/refs/remotes/origin/foo/master

  The problem occurs when someone still has
  '.git/refs/remotes/origin/foo' on their system and does a repo sync.
  When this occurs the error message for needing to do a
  'git remote prune origin' occurs.

Now when doing a 'git fetch' if the error message from git says that a
'git remote prune' is needed, it will do the prune and then retry the
fetch.
