How to remove git subtree reference

I added a subtree via 

git subtree add --prefix=path/to/example --squash [email protected]:johndoe/example.git master

and want to remove it. There's no git subtree rm command. I already deleted all files in path/to/example but path/to/example still appears when I list subtrees via

git log | grep git-subtree-dir | awk '{ print $2 }'

How can I remove the subtree reference from git such that it can no longer be pushed/pulled/etc.?
