innerHTML is a lie

If you want the value of a form field such as a text area you might think $('textarea').html() would return what you expected. If you have not changed the text in that textarea, then your assertion is correct. However if you do change the text in the text area, then call $('textarea').html() again, you will notice that the returned value did not change.

This is not a bug in jQuery, but just a subtle gotcha in the way the DOM works. The solution is to get the DOM elements value via $('textarea').val(). [1]_

Delete Stale Branches

This script makes the following assumptions

develop and master are special branches that are never deleted
upstream is your canonical repository
origin is your fork of upstream
The remote origin is a gitHub repo
The origin repo is SSH not HTTPS i.e. your ssh key is used instead of manually entering user name and password
