    How to delete a GIT branch

     Delete a Local Branch:

    To delete the local branch, use one of the following:

    git branch -d <branch_name>
    git branch -D <branch_name>
    
    • The -d option is an alias for --delete, which only deletes the branch if it has already been fully merged in its upstream branch.
    • The -D option is an alias for --delete --force, which deletes the branch "irrespective of its merged status." [Source: man git-branch]

    Delete Remote Branch

    As of Git v1.7.0, you can delete a remote branch using

    $ git push <remote_name> --delete <branch_name>
