Is there a way to change branch name in Azure DevOps. As shown in SS i have named my branch as Developer branch, now i want to change it to a specific request-id. Is this possible.
Git Branch Rename Command The steps to change a git branch name are: Rename the Git branch locally with the git branch -m new-branch-name command. Push the new branch to your GitHub or GitLab repo. Delete the branch with the old name from your remote repo.
From the repo drop-down, select Manage repositories. Select the name of the repository from the Repositories list, choose the ... menu, and then choose Rename repository. Rename the repository by typing the repo's new name and selecting Rename.
Unfortunately, you are not able to rename a branch. However, you can create a new branch from the branch which you want to rename then you can delete that branch.
As per the design, the rename of azure repo branches is not implemented. You can see this existing similar thread
Microsoft's documentation page "Rename old branches" gives the following instructions:
