Frank,

I found the local branch was removed successfully from the git repository at code.gnucash.org 
(our master repository). However it was still available in the repository on github.

That's actually to be expected if I consider how code synchronizes to github. For each push it 
receives, code runs a git push --all to push the same changes to github. However that 
command will never remove branches.

I have removed the local branch directly from github. As admin I can work directly on that repo. 
A dangerous power ;)

Lastly, the errors you see when you push come from the mail script in my opinion and can be 
ignored.
