Subject: protect branches against deletion from remote
Date: Sat, 14 Mar 2015 19:28:40 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <55047DD8.703@gmx.de> (raw)
Hi,
If you try to delete a local branch "feature" which is not merged into
another branch, you will get the following warning:
. error: The branch 'feature' is not fully merged.
. If you are sure you want to delete it, run 'git branch -D feature'.
If a local branch is worth to be protected in such a way, why not the
remote tracking one:
$ git push origin :feature
no warning, just deleted.
Well i can set "receive.denyDeletes" on the remote repository, but this
completely removes the ability to delete remote branches.
How to achieve a similar behavior as with local branches?
(BTW. with "git push . :feature" it is also possible to force deletion
of local, unmerged branches)
Best regards
Henning
