Ah, thanks. [I haven't had chance to check the code]
The man page does say:
. -d
. Delete a branch. The branch must be fully merged in its upstream
. branch, or in HEAD if no upstream was set with --track
. or --set-upstream.
It's whether or not Ulrich had joined the two aspects together, and if the
doc was sufficient to help recognise the 'unmerged' issue. Ulrich?
