Delete branches in Bitbucket

People also ask

How do I completely delete a branch?

Deleting a branch LOCALLY Delete a branch with git branch -d <branch> . The -d option will delete the branch only if it has already been pushed and merged with the remote branch. Use -D instead if you want to force the branch to be deleted, even if it hasn't been pushed or merged yet.

Can we delete master branch in Bitbucket?

You have to change the main branch of bibucket before being able to delete it. As long as master is the main branch, bitbucket will prevent you to do so (which make sense).

Can I see deleted branches in Bitbucket?

- First, on your local repository, perform git reflog . This will list down all previous HEADs. Find the latest commit hash for the branch that you have deleted.

How do I delete multiple branches?

Deleting Multiple Remote Branches egrep -v "(^\*|master|main)" - exclude branch master and main. sed 's/origin\///' - because the remote branches are prefixed with origin/ this command will filter that part out so it returns only the branch name. xargs -n 1 git push origin --delete - deletes the remaining branches.


If the branches are only local, you can use -d if the branch has been merged, like

git branch -d branch-name

If the branch contains code you never plan on merging, use -D instead.

If the branch is in the upstream repo (on Bitbucket) you can remove the remote reference by

git push origin :branch-name

Also, if you're on the Bitbucket website, you can remove branches you've pushed by going to the Feature branches tab under Commits on the site. There you'll find an ellipsis icon. Click that, then choose Delete branch. Just be sure you want to drop all the changes there!

Turned out someone had set Branch permissions under Settings and from there unchecked Allow deleting this branch. Hope this can help someone.
