#72 RFE: "fedpkg retire" functionality
Closed: Fixed Opened by mbooth.

Reopen Issue

I was trying to retire a package according to the destructions on this page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_remove_a_package_at_end_of_life

But when I do a "fedpkg push", I get this error:
"Could not push: No spec file found."

So I did a "git push" instead, which was fine, but I was thinking, would it be nice if there were a "fedpkg retire" command that would remove all the files in the branch and added a dead.package file and then allowed you to push without a spec file being present? Thoughts?

Newer versions of fedpkg fix the issue of being able to push when there is no .spec file in the repo.

As to a function that does the retirement, that's a decent RFE.

Retire function has been added.
