> I accidentally created "hdfs-7240" (small caps) when I was updating an HDFS feature branch.
> The actual branch I intended to update was "HDFS-7240". When I attempted to delete the new branch I get an error 
> {code}
> hadoop aengineer$ git push origin :hdfs-7240
> remote: error: denying ref deletion for refs/heads/hdfs-7240
> To https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop.git
>  ! [remote rejected] hdfs-7240 (deletion prohibited)
> error: failed to push some refs to 'https://git-wip- us.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop.git'
> {code}
> Could you please delete "hdfs-7240" , the small cap version of the branch.
