Hi,
I tried to setup a central git repository. Access is via ssh.
How do I delete a remote branch? If I try it using
> git branch -d -r origin/testbranch
> git push origin :refs/heads/testbranch
I get the error
To ssh://myserver.com/my/path/to/repository
! [rejected] testbranch (remote does not support deleting refs)
error: failed to push some refs to
'ssh://myserver.com/my/path/to/repository'
So how do I setup my remote repository to allow deleting remote branches?
Thanks,
Martin
