Delete Git Branch
The git branch -d command is used to delete a local branch.
Syntax
git branch -d <branch-name>
Example: git branch -d user_signin_feature
In some cases, deleting of a branch may failed if the branch contains commits that have not been merged with any local or remote branch. If you want to delete such a branch forcefully then use -D flag.
Syntax:
git branch -D <branch-name>
Example: git branch -D user_signin_feature
Delete a Remote Git branch
After deleting a local branch, you may want to delete the remote branch as well. To delete a remote branch, you need to first delete it locally and then push the update as follows:
Syntax
git push -d origin <branch-name>
Example: git push -d origin user_signin_feature
