Hi,
it seems that an old verison on the remote site was the problem:
On debian/etch git seems to be too old. I upgraded git to the testing
version and now I can delete remote branches.
But I get another error:
$ git push origin :testbranch
To ssh://myserver.com/my/path/to/repository
- [deleted] testbranch
error: unlink(.git/refs/remotes/origin/testbranch) failed: No such file
or directory
error: Failed to delete
Any idea?
Thanks,
Martin

Hi,
I tried to setup a central git repository. Access is via ssh.
How do I delete a remote branch? If I try it using
> git branch -d -r origin/testbranch
> git push origin :refs/heads/testbranch
I get the error
To ssh://myserver.com/my/path/to/repository
! [rejected] testbranch (remote does not support deleting refs)
error: failed to push some refs to
'ssh://myserver.com/my/path/to/repository'
So how do I setup my remote repository to allow deleting remote branches?
Thanks,
Martin
