Hi,

I'm trying to delete a remote branch. I've tried:
$ jgit branch -a
  help
* master
  temp
  origin/master
  origin/branch_to_delete
$ jgit branch -d -r origin/branch_to_delete
Deleted remote branch branch_to_delete
$ jgit push origin :branch_to_delete
To amazon-s3://.jgit@abcd1234/projects/somewhere
 X [no match]        branch_to_delete
$ jgit fetch
 * [new branch]      branch_to_delete -> origin/branch_to_delete


What am I doing wrong? Or does JGit command line currently not support remote branch deletion? (I've searched the forums so apologies if I've missed the answer to this.)

Regards,
VT

When pushing to Remote have you Tried to Push to a Full ref? Like: "push origin :refs/heads/branch_to_delete"

Ciao
