Get rid of foreign git branch

I have a git project where I just have a master branch. Sometime in the past I cloned pandas somewhere in a subfolder and then deleted it. Since then I have a separate branch with plenty of pandas history. How can I get rid of it? It seems to be on a separate branch, but the branch isn't mentioned anywhere.

I tried to see if the specific commits, which I can see in sourcetree, can be assinged to a branch, but no output it branch --contains 58199c5da263491a26fa6cb26d2ff9d38c4b5dac

Any suggestions how to get rid of that branch is appreciated. enter image description here

You can see above the pink branch is not from me. How can I delete it? This is my repo: https://github.com/dickreuter/poker

is it a tag? git tag -d <tagname> would get rid of it locally. But perhaps it was someone else who created it and you got it from a fetch.
