git-flow does not delete remote branch when published release is finished #411

git flow does not delete remote branch when a release which is published and then finished. It deletes release branch on local but not on remote

╰─± git flow release finish v3.1.12 
Switched to branch 'master'
Merge made by the 'recursive' strategy.

I also have the same problem.

Are you using the push flag (https://github.com/nvie/gitflow/blob/master/git-flow-release#L193) ? It seems that if the push flag is flipped to true, then part of the logic is to attempt to delete the remote branch (after pushing).

according to this thread, you can kill the remote feature branch as well with: git flow feature finish -F.

I had the same problem with git flow release finish 1.0.0 After pushing my tags with git push --tags I run git push origin :release/1.0.0 and then my release remote branch was deleted on gitlab repo

Sorry for the notification after 7 years :)

You can also run git flow release finish -p [VERSION] This command will fetch, push and delete branch in question.
