Deleting branches in Git
As mentioned in previous lessons, Git does not delete branches when merging. If you no longer need a branch, you need to delete it with a special command. To do this, use the branch command with the -D flag, followed by the name of the branch to be deleted, separated by a space.
Let's delete our test branch as an example:
git branch -D test
After executing the command, we will see the following message:
Deleted branch test (was c440a0b).
Delete one of the side branches in your Git repository.
