How Do I Delete All Git Branches Which Have Been Merged?
To delete all Git branches that have been merged into the current branch, you can use the following command:
git branch --merged | grep -v "\\*" | xargs -n 1 git branch -d
This command performs the following steps:
git branch --merged: Lists all branches that have been merged into the current branch.grep -v "\\*": Excludes the current branch from the list.xargs -n 1 git branch -d: Deletes each branch listed.
After running this command, all merged branches (except the current one) will be deleted from your local repository.
Note:
- Be cautious when deleting branches, as this action cannot be undone.
- Make sure you are on the branch where you want to keep the changes before running the command.
- Ensure that you have pushed any important branches to a remote repository before deleting them locally.
- Branches that have not been merged will not be deleted by this command. If you want to delete unmerged branches as well, you can use
git branch -Dinstead ofgit branch -d, but be aware that this will delete branches regardless of their merge status.
