git-sweep is a Python command-line tool that identifies Git branches already merged into master and safely deletes them from the remote. It offers a preview mode, confirmation prompts, and options to skip fetches or exclude specific branches.
Use cases
- clean up merged git branches
- delete stale remote branches
- find branches merged into master
- prune remote branch list
- automate git branch housekeeping
When to choose
- your repository accumulates many merged feature branches
- you want a safe preview before deleting remote branches
- you prefer a simple pip-installable CLI over manual git branch -d checks
When to avoid
- you need to delete unmerged or local-only branches
- you require GUI-based git management
- you need scheduled or automated cleanup without confirmation
