Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Delete Untracked Git Branches

Delete all those annoying untracked local Git branches in one fell swoop.

Table of Contents

Overview

delete-untracked-git-branches is a command-line tool that helps you clean up your local Git repository by deleting branches that are no longer tracked by a remote repository or have been merged. This is particularly useful when you have numerous local branches that are not needed anymore, and you want to delete them quickly without manually checking each one.

Note: Ensure that you don't have any uncommitted changes before running the script, as it might encounter issues or cause data loss.

Installation

You can install delete-untracked-git-branches globally using npm:

npm install -g delete-untracked-git-branches

Alternatively, install it as a development dependency in your project:

npm install --save-dev delete-untracked-git-branches

Or, you can use it without installing by using npx:

npx delete-untracked-git-branches [options]

Usage

The delete-untracked-git-branches script supports the following options:

Options

| Option | Alias | Description | Type | Default | | ---------------------- | ----- | -------------------------------------------------------------- | --------- | ------- | | --checkout-branch | -c | The branch to checkout before performing the branch deletions. | string | | | --protected-branches | -p | Comma-separated list of branches to exclude from deletion. | string | | | --dry-run | -d | Lists untracked branches without deleting them. | boolean | false |

Examples

Delete All Untracked Branches

To delete all your untracked branches:

delete-untracked-git-branches

Checkout a Branch Before Deletion

If you want to checkout another branch (e.g., development) before deleting untracked branches:

delete-untracked-git-branches -c development

Protect Certain Branches from Deletion

To protect certain branches (e.g., development and main) from being deleted:

delete-untracked-git-branches -p development,main

Dry Run

To list all untracked branches without deleting them (dry run):

delete-untracked-git-branches -d

This command will display the branches that would be deleted without actually deleting them.
