Deleting a local branch

[michaelBelsanti]

Is there a simple way to delete an entire branch? I've had cases where I simply don't need a branch anymore, so I delete the bookmark. This leaves an unnamed branch that I'm not sure of an easy way to delete, besides abandoning each change, which is only really viable if it's a small branch.

I'm very new to Jujutsu but couldn't find a clear answer on this. Maybe its a revset I should be using. Speaking of, can anybody recommend some good sources for learning to use advanced revsets more? I haven't gone beyond @+, @- and ::.

The easiest way in my opinion is to find the change ID of the first commit in the branch (e.g. xxx) and the last commit in the branch (e.g. yyy) and then run jj abandon xxx::yyy. The nice thing with this approach is that it's pretty clear what will get abandoned (everything between xxx and yyy, including both xxx and yyy).

If you know the base bookmark that it branches off from (e.g. main), you could probably use jj abandon main..yyy instead to abandon all commits that are in the branch, but aren't in main.

Both of those are helpful, thanks!
