Subject: How to get rid of tracking branch?
Date: Wed, 14 Feb 2007 14:24:31 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <45D30D8F.50261DB0@eudaptics.com> (raw)
Call me clueless, but how the heck do I get rid of a tracking remote
branch? I've cloned a repo locally, but in the clone I don't want to
track all the topic branches of the origin. But git branch -d keeps
saying it doesn't find the remote branch:
$ git version
git version 1.5.0
$ git clone mingw-git/ mingw-git2
[... all looks fine ...]
$ cd mingw-git2/
$ git branch -a
* devel
origin/HEAD
origin/devel
origin/master
origin/origin
origin/repo-devel
$ git branch -d origin/repo-devel
error: branch 'origin/repo-devel' not found.
$ git branch -d remotes/origin/repo-devel
error: branch 'remotes/origin/repo-devel' not found.
$ git branch -d heads/remotes/origin/repo-devel
error: branch 'heads/remotes/origin/repo-devel' not found.
$ git branch -d refs/heads/remotes/origin/repo-devel
error: branch 'refs/heads/remotes/origin/repo-devel' not found.
How do I delete remote branches? Do I have to
rm .git/refs/heads/remotes/origin/repo-devel
(I know I have to update the config, too, so that the next pull doesn't
draw the branch in again, but I haven't done that at this point.)
