How to remove a forked project in Gitlab
login with master role in the repository.
go to forked project. then from left panel, go to Settings => General.
like this:
click the Expand from Advance settings panel.
go to bottom page and click Remove project.
then type your projectName and click Confirm.
I hope is useful.
First, check wheter you have master role in the repository/Group. Developer or any other role cannot delete the project/forked project.
If you are master then
- Go to settings
- Go to Advanced settings.
- Click on remove project.
- Type the project name and click
confirm
As per the above response, you'll not be able to fork again for about a week as the name is already taken, by the pending removed fork.
This is frustrating, and sometimes unaffordable. Here is what you can do from settings:
1) change the deferred removal project name
2) press Save Changes (ignroing potential error messages)
3) expand advanced and now rename the path as well
4) try to fork again; now it worked
