So I ran this command:
git checkout -b --track origin/RB_1.4.5
I thought that it would create a local branch by the same name and set it up to track the remote branch, but instead it created a branch called --track. I could have sworn that omitting the local branch name will normally cause it to assume you want the same name as the remote branch, but I guess this wasn't the case.
Now running:
git branch
gives me:
* --track
master
I've tried checking out master and then running:
git branch -D --track (as well as "--track")
but that doesn't do anything (no errors or anything).
I tried removing the corresponding lines in .git/config, but still no dice.
How can I remove that branch? Also, in the future, is there a way to do what I wanted and still not have to re-type the local branch name?
