    [tip] Remote git branch – How to delete? 

    Ok, you probably delete your local branch with this command:

    $ git branch -D branchname

    But how to delete this branch in your remotes?

    From Pro Git by Scott Chacon, we have:

    Deleting Remote Branches

    Suppose you’re done with a remote branch — say, you and your collaborators are finished with a feature and have merged it into your remote’s master branch (or whatever branch your stable codeline is in). You can delete a remote branch using the rather obtuse syntax git push [remotename] :[branch]. If you want to delete your serverfix branch from the server, you run the following:

    $ git push origin :serverfix
    To git@github.com:schacon/simplegit.git
     - [deleted]         serverfix

    Boom. No more branch on your server. You may want to dog-ear this page, because you’ll need that command, and you’ll likely forget the syntax. A way to remember this command is by recalling the git push [remotename] [localbranch]:[remotebranch] syntax that we went over a bit earlier. If you leave off the [localbranch] portion, then you’re basically saying, “Take nothing on my side and make it be [remotebranch].”

    That’s it!

    To remember when things get complicated 

    Escape Your Own Intelligence (Startup Daily #269)

    At times we are too smart for our own good. We attempt add value to situations by adding unnecessary complexity. This can be a great way to demonstrate our intelligence, but it’s rarely the best solution to the problem.

    Complicating a Situation Doesn’t Usually Make it Better

    When things seem to be getting too complicated, cut through the fog by bringing things back to the most basic functionality and obvious facts.

    ~ and this: ~

    Today’s Solution vs. the Best Solution (Startup Daily #270)

    When solving problems or making changes, people often attempt to create the most sustainable solution possible. But nothing is permanent. Finding and implementing a permanent solution is not always a good use of resources.

    Don’t Be Afraid to Use Quick, Temporary Solutions

    Both the problem and the solution are likely to evolve over time. Solving the problem quickly is often more important than creating a sustainable solution.
