I can only think of a destructive way to handle this ... Which would be (In this case):

Check commit exists in [email protected]:wordpress-plugins/wp-idea-stream
Check commit exists in wp-content/plugins/wp-idea-stream repo
If it exists in [email protected]:wordpress-plugins/wp-idea-stream but not wp-content/plugins/wp-idea-stream, remove wp-content/plugins/wp-idea-stream and reclone?

Though it could be a dev environment, and removing directories from someone's project may not be the best idea ...
