SourceTree and Git Flow remote branch delete on finish

[Grant]

Git Flow has the ability to automatically delete the remote branch (along with the local branch) of a feature/hotfix/etc after finishing using the -F option. The -F option fetches the remote branch before it deletes it remotely so you don't lose any work.

git flow feature finish -F branch_name

I looked around but it doesn't look I the Git Flow addon in SourceTree can do the same. Is there some way to have this option in Git Flow options in SourceTree?

On a side note, great work on the SourceTree app! The whole app is great and the Git Flow integration just tops it off. Very userfriendly and intutitive.

I too came across this issue. I found this fork of git-flow called the avh edition(https://github.com/petervanderdoes/gitflow) fixes this behaviour among other improvements. Its actively maintained unlike the original. There are feature requests to integrate the avh version to sourcetree. Please vote for them. (Windows - https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/SRCTREEWIN-1394, Mac - https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/SRCTREE-1762)

I found this post after googling for a solution to the same problem. If you could add this function to SourceTree, it would be wonderful !

[Have added a feature request to Jira as suggested by Kieran]

Hi Grant. Just so we know, is this for Windows or Mac?
