To show branches, use git branch
. If you want to show all branches even the remote ones, use git branch -a
.
To delete a branch, use git branch -d <branch-name>
. If the branch name is refactor-feature-x
, so the command will be git branch -d refactor-feature-x
.
But this command deletes the local branch only. The branch on your local machine. What about deleting the remote branch? The branch on the remote machine/repo.
To delete the remote branch, just use this git command git push origin -d <branch-name>
. If the branch name is refactor-feature-x
, so the command will be git push origin -d refactor-feature-x
.
I hope this helps. Share if you care.
