@nathanrice yup exactly. that’ll make it “remote tracking” and aware that origin branch is primal for lack of better word

@nathanrice if you created it via the UI, then git fetch to create it locally, fetch -p would delete it when deleted from the UI

@nathanrice that’s why. it’s a local branch first. wouldn’t want someone else deleting the branch via UI to take your’s.

@nathanrice @itsananderson how did you create the local branch?

@nathanrice of course subbing origin, master, etc with the names for your repo, yadda yadda.

@nathanrice git push origin :branch && git branch -d branchname (the colon preceding will delete a remoate branch).
