How do I delete a local repository in git?

Question

I cant find the command, tried google: git "delete a repository" Thanks

Answer 1

If you want to delete everything (git-data, code, etc), just delete the whole directory.

If you only want to delete the git-related information (branches, versions), delete the .git directory in the root-directory of your repository.

Answer 2

In the repository directory you remove the directory named .git and that's all :). On Un*x it is hidden, so you might not see it from file browser, but

cd repository-path/
rm -r .git

should do the trick.
