Delete the .git
directory in the root-directory of your repository if you only want to delete the git-related information (branches, versions).
If you want to delete everything (git-data, code, etc), just delete the whole directory.
.git directories are hidden by default, so you’ll need to be able to view hidden files to delete it.
