Overview

This node operation deletes a Debian distribution identified by its codename from a specific group in GitLab. It is useful for managing Debian package repositories within GitLab groups, allowing users to remove outdated or unnecessary Debian distributions. For example, a user can delete a Debian distribution with a specific codename from a group to clean up repository configurations.

Use Case Examples

  1. Deleting a Debian distribution with codename 'sid' from a GitLab group with ID '123'.
  2. Removing an obsolete Debian distribution from a group to maintain repository hygiene.
