I'm not having any luck reproducing here with a simple case. :( I'm trying:

-- >8 -- #!/bin/sh

rm -rf parent* child
commit() {
  echo $1 >file && git add file && git commit -m $1
}
mkdir parent1 && (
  cd parent1 &&
  git init &&
  commit one &&
  commit two &&
  git checkout -b other
) &&
mkdir parent2 && (
  cd parent2 &&
  git init &&
  commit three
) &&
mkdir child && (
  cd child &&
  git init &&
  git remote add parent1 ../parent1 &&
  git remote add parent2 ../parent2 &&
  git remote update
) &&
(
  cd parent1 &&
  git checkout master &&
  git branch -d other &&
  git reset --hard HEAD^ &&
  commit four
) && (
  cd child &&
  git remote update --prune
)
