Try this:

git branch -D mysubbranch

@TomFreudenberg Do you have a source for that. As far as I know `branch -D` will delete the branch even if it wasn't merged, while `branch -d` only allows deletion if it was merged. It will not cause deletion of the remote branch. – Mark Rotteveel Aug 23 '20 at 09:35
