That is a great point, the branch deleting command you added is definitely easier to understand and remember. I added your suggestion to the post, thank you for bringing it up!
In regards to the issues you are having with tab-completing a branch name, I’m not sure why bash git completion does not recognize those two commands as the same, I will look into it and let you know if I find out why this is happening.
Side note, starting on Git v2.8.0 you can use git push with the -d option as an alias from —delete, in case you like this shortcut better.
Thank you again for reading and providing suggestions! :)
