title: Deleting a badly named git branch
body: <p>I know this isn't strictly a programming question, but it is related to git. I accidentally have created a branch in git called <code>--track</code> (I got the order of options wrong when merging a remote branch)</p>
  
  <p>The regular command doesn't work:</p>
  
  <pre><code>git branch -D "--track"  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have tried to escape with quotes and backward slashes, however neither work.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
