How to Delete all branches except one in GIT?

Question

I want to delete all the branches on local except the current one. Is this possible with a single command?

Answer 1

The way to delete all the local branches except the one you want -

git branch | grep -v "branch_to_skip_deletion" | xargs git branch -D

Replace "branchtoskip_deletion" with the branch name you don't want to delete and this command will remove all the local branches except the mentioned one.
