Git repos have lots of write protected files in the .git
directory, sometimes hundreds, and the default rm my_project_managed_by_git
will prompt before deleting each write protected file. So, to actually delete my project I have to do rm -rf my_project_managed_by_git
.
Using rm -rf
scares me. Is there a reasonable way to delete git repos without it?
You must log in or register to comment.
use relative paths (cd into the directory below your repository) and use tab completion, and you won’t have problems.
