To delete a Git branch locally, you can use the git branch
command with the -d
option:
ruby
$ git branch -d branch_name
Replace branch_name
with the name of the branch you want to delete. This will delete the branch locally on your machine.
To delete a Git branch remotely, you need to use the git push
command with the --delete
option:
perl
$ git push origin --delete branch_name
Replace branch_name
with the name of the branch you want to delete, and origin
with the name of your remote repository. This will delete the branch from the remote repository.
It’s important to note that you can only delete a branch that has been fully merged into another branch. If the branch you’re trying to delete has not been fully merged, you’ll need to merge it into another branch before you can delete it.
