Delete Head Branch (Deprecated)

Delete pull request head branch. Deprecated in favor of GitHub's built-in "Automatically delete head branches" setting.


The action deletes a pull request’s head branch once the pull request is closed. Turn on Automatically delete head branches in your repository settings and drop the action from your rules.

forceboolean·defaultfalse#

If set to true, the branch will be deleted even if another pull request depends on the head branch. GitHub will therefore close the dependent pull requests.
