v1.7.0-rc0~18^2 (branch -d: base the "already-merged" safety on the branch it merges with, 2009-12-29) taught ‘git branch’ a new heuristic for when it is safe to delete a branch without forcing the issue. It is safe to delete a branch "topic" without second thought if: - the branch "topic" is set up to pull from a (remote-tracking, usually) branch and is fully merged in that "upstream" branch, or - there is no branch.topic.merge configuration and branch "topic" is fully merged in the current HEAD. Update the man page to acknowledge the new rules. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
