{pts/1}% stg branch --delete --force tmp
Deleting branch "tmp" ... stg branch: Branch "tmp" not initialised
{pts/1}% stg branch --clone tmp

Cloning current branch to "tmp" ... stg branch: tmp already initialized
I am not sure exactly how it happened. Using 0.14.3 and up-to-date GIY
recently I started to get "git failed with code 128" for large number of
operations. Apparently this resulted in sort of "ghost" branch that
cannot be deleted but cannot be worked with either
{pts/1}% stg branch -c tmp
Checking for changes in the working directory ... done
Recording as a local branch
Branch "tmp" created
{pts/1}% stg branch -l
Available branches:
s initscripts |
s local-mdv |
master |
mdv |
> s tmp |
{pts/1}% stg branch local-mdv
Checking for changes in the working directory ... done
Switching to branch "local-mdv" ... done
{pts/1}% stg branch --delete tmp
Deleting branch "tmp" ...
stg branch: git failed with code 128
{pts/1}% stg branch -l
Available branches:
s initscripts |
> s local-mdv |
master |
mdv |
{pts/1}% stg branch --clone tmp
Checking for changes in the working directory ... done
Cloning current branch to "tmp" ...
stg branch: tmp already initialized
And now I have
{pts/1}% cat .git/config
[core]

I would expect, stgit branch --delete --force to allow cleanups from
such cases.
