sorry we do not delete branches.

So, how to delete private branches? I am not allowed to do it myself, but I am allowed to create them, which is strange:

remote: + refs/heads/private-master-8.6 tcl jskarvad DENIED by fallthru

remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/private-master-8.6

To ssh://jskarvad@pkgs.fedoraproject.org/tcl

! [remote rejected] private-master-8.6 (hook declined)

error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://jskarvad@pkgs.fedoraproject.org/tcl'

they can not be deleted. see https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5843 right now we have no way to make sure you have not done a build from your private branch, so we do not allow removal

Replying to [comment:3 ausil]:

Thanks for info.

I am pretty sure nothing was build from it, but I know, you can be never 100% sure, so I can live with it.

I am looking forward to when this will be systematically resolved. Branching is something that speed-ups development with git. Impossibility to delete branches is painful, makes mess in the respository and I thing it is something that stops people from using branching for development (at least me), which is bad.

You can create local branches and do local builds from those. I do that for some of my work.
