The command git push -d ${remote_name} ${branch_name}
is used to delete a branch on a remote repository.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
git push
: This is the command to push changes from a local repository to a remote repository.-d
: It is an option for delete. It tells Git that you want to delete a branch on the remote repository.${remote_name}
: This is the name of the remote repository where the branch exists.${branch_name}
: This is the name of the branch you want to delete on the remote repository.
So by running git push -d ${remote_name} ${branch_name}
, you can delete the specified branch on the remote repository.
On the other hand, the command git branch -d ${branch_name}
is used to delete a branch on the local repository.
Here is a breakdown of this command:
git branch
: This is the command to manage branches in Git.-d
: It is an option for delete. It tells Git that you want to delete a branch on the local repository.${branch_name}
: This is the name of the branch you want to delete on the local repository.
So when you run git branch -d ${branch_name}
, it deletes the specified branch on the local repository.
