Overview

This node operation deletes a specific Debian distribution identified by its codename from a GitLab project. It is useful for managing Debian package repositories within GitLab projects, allowing users to remove outdated or unnecessary Debian distributions. For example, a user can delete a Debian distribution named 'sid' from a project by specifying the project ID and the codename.

Use Case Examples

  1. Deleting a Debian distribution 'sid' from project with ID '12345'.
  2. Removing an obsolete Debian distribution from a GitLab project to clean up package repositories.
