How do I batch delete redundant remote git branches?

2018-06-08 14:31:43

I have a relatively large collection of remote branches from an old remote repo:

$ git branch -r
  guy/feat1
  guy/feat2
  guy/feat3
  guy/feat4
  guy/feat5
  guy/feat6
  guy/feat7
  guy/feat8
  origin/HEAD
  origin/master

Is there one command that would remove all guy branches?

The repo no longer has guy as a remote repo.

git branch -r | grep guy/ | xargs git branch -d

（假设$符号实际上并不是你输出的一部分......）

You can also try (from git remote ):

git remote --prune guy

With:

prune

Deletes all stale remote-tracking branches under <name> .
These stale branches have already been removed from the remote repository referenced by <name> , but are still locally available in "remotes/".

With --dry-run option, report what branches will be pruned, but do not actually prune them.

See also "Difference between git remote prune and git branch -d -r "

if guy is no longer a valide remote repo, then:

git gc --prune=now

will clean up those branches (along with some unreferenced commits, so use it with caution)
See more at "How do you Remove an Invalid Remote Branch Reference from Git?": it is usually more safe to just go with: git branch -rd guy/badbranch if possible, but if this doesn't work, then git gc --prune=now can also be a solution.

To delete a remote branch you can use git push <remote-repo> :branch-to-delete note the colon before branch-to-delete. Also see Delete multiple remote branches in git ... This shows how to construct a one-liner to delete multiple branches in one go.
