Whenever i create new branch in github project, new project named with same branch gets created in multi-branch pipeline project in jenkins.
But vise versa is not possible.
please let me know the reason or is there any way to do this ?

I believe it may depend on your build history retention policy. If your policy is to keep builds for 10 days, the build will remain for 10 days. I've found that changing the retention policy will allow it to be removed sooner.

If using the 2.0.0+ versions (currently only in the experimental update centre) the events will mark the branch as a dead branch within 5s of the branch being deleted.

The branch will not actually be deleted until the branch indexing has run and only if the Orphaned Item strategy marks the branch for deletion.

Once a branch is a dead branch, however, you can manually delete it sooner (assuming you have delete permissions)

(This behaviour is necessary to eg allow close PR & reopen PR to trigger a rebuild while retaining history)

Thank you for you response. I am using 2.19 version. After branch deletion it will wait for few days to remove that branch job from multi-branch pipeline. It basically depends on build history retention policy as mentioned in above mail trail.

Exactly. You should find improvements once I cut the non-beta releases in the coming week
