How do I delete a Git branch locally?

Question

i wanted to delete git branch locally but i get the error

$ git branch -d remotes/origin/incident
error: branch 'remotes/origin/incident' not found.

please help me to solve this problem

remotes/origin ==> its not local branch, execute, $git branch command , identify the branch name you want to delete then execute: $git branch -d , to forcedelete use: $git branch -D , hope this will help: https://git-scm.com/docs, — dkb, Jun 01 '18 at 11:18
