I guess you have some branch references in the file
.git/remotes/origin that shouldn't be there, so you can just remove
the lines that mention  'jc/bind', 'jc/bind-2' and 'gb/diffdelta' from
that file.

The pu branch is rebased all the time so it needs a '+' in
.git/remotes/origin to be automatically updated, like this:

Pull: +pu:pu

(or you can run 'git pull -f' to force the update)
