## Delete merged branches
> [Introduced][ce-6449] in GitLab 8.14.
![Delete merged branches](img/delete_merged_branches.png)
This feature allows merged branches to be deleted in bulk. Only branches that
have been merged and [are not protected][protected] will be deleted as part of
this operation.
It's particularly useful to clean up old branches that were not deleting
automatically when a merge request was merged.
