java.util.concurrent.Callable<java.util.List<java.lang.String>>

public class DeleteBranchCommand
extends GitCommand<java.util.List<java.lang.String>>

Used to delete one or several branches. The result of call() is a list with the (full) names of the deleted branches. Note that we don't have a setter corresponding to the -r option; remote tracking branches are simply deleted just like local branches.
