    Hi, all
         I just mistaken 'git checkout -b 1.5.5.1 v1.5.5.1' to 'git
    checkout -b -f v1.5.5.1', and I don't how to delete it ,

      537  git-branch -D -f
      538  git-branch -D \-f
      539  git-branch -D "\-f"

         all the above operations were failed. :(

         PS: Would it be better if we do checking on branch name to avoid
    this case?

You could probably just

    rm .git/refs/heads/-f

and if necessary, replace the content of .git/HEAD with something else.
