Git -> Remote -> Fetch... on the second panel click 'Enable Deletes' and select the branches under origin/ you want to delete. Is it not enough? Not sure what more you require. Didn't know this feature, because I only use fetch from upstream. I think thats enough but why I have to select the branches? You have more options what you not need I think. The remote branches where deleted, why do we need to select them to delete it extra? When I use the command line and do git fetch -a --prune, I can't select a branch, maybe I can because of an extra command or so but I don't care. Is there a real case to do it like this way? For me I have to use git -> remote -> fetch -> enable deletes, select all branches and then ok. To much user interaction in this way. For safety reasons, i think deleting a branch is a potentially risky action. So i let user have it completely under control. There is a bunch of buttons already (select all/none, etc.) there could be another one "Select Deletes" probably. I am against making this part of Fetch from Upstream action, because it has no UI and may bring unexpected results. Ok I understand the part. Thx. Than we can close this ticket and create a new one with a button to select deleted or so that I can use a shortcut for maybe alt + d to select deleted. To use more the keyboard than the mouse, in my case. Thx. |
