Subject: Branch deletion question / possible bug?
Message-ID: <d4d8d8208b6a41c380ecf20807763bcf@XCH15-05-02.nw.nos.boeing.com>

Hi,

I discovered that I was able to delete the feature branch I was in, due to some fat fingering on my part and case insensitivity.  I never realized this could be done before.  A quick google search did not give me a whole lot to work with...  

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a feature branch, "editCss"
2. git checkout master
3. git checkout editCSS
4. git checkout editCss
5. git branch -d editCSS

Normally, it should have been impossible for a user to delete the branch they're on.  And the deletion left me in a weird state that took a while to dig out of.

I know this was a user error, but I was also wondering if this was a bug.


Thanks,

Pik Tang
