To DELETE a branch we can simply use the command git branch –d [head].
To delete a branch locally, we can simply run the command: git branch -d <local_branch_name>
To delete a branch remotely, run the command: git PUSH origin --delete <remote_branch_name>
Deleting a BRANCHING scenario occurs for multiple REASONS. One such REASON is to get rid of the feature branches once it has been merged into the development branch.
