Hi,
I'm starting using Projects and I can't find how to delete a local branch, do you know how ?
I merged and deleted it on my Bitbucket repo but I would like it to be deleted also locally.
Thank you

Hi @Charlotte
the node-red UI doesn't provide a way to delete a branch - you'll have to fall back to the command-line.
You will find your project under `~/.node-red/projects/`
In that directory you can run `git branch -d `
If it complains about the branch not being fully merged (ie, it contains commits that are not in the main branch), and if you are _really_ sure you want to delete the branch, you can use `-D` instead of `-d`.
