# help
$ git-tidier --help
$ git-tidier --version
# uninstall
$ npm uninstall -g git-tidier

Before Use

Note: Deleting a branch is a very dangerous thing, please ensure that the current warehouse work has been completed, carefully check the prompt information

good development habits are

• any branch remains clean
• Before switching branches each time, do not have legacy commits or stash to prevent forgetting.

How do I check if a branch is active?

$ git branch --sort=committerdate

check

check if current git needs cleanup

$ git-tidier check

# protect the nearest activity 3 branches
$ git-tidier check -n 3

clear

• To ensure that branches are not deleted by mistake as much as possible, the git-tidier ignores the main branch, the current branch, and the three most recently active branches by default (the default behavior can be overridden by configuration)
• git-tidier deletes the local branch and the remote branch corresponding to the remote origin by default
• If the deletion is unstable, it can be set to git-tidier clear -n 5 . Do you need to clear it on the premise of keeping the latest 5 branches?
