Thank you for giving us the ability to delete old branches in the GitHub integration! :tada: :pray:

Although it looks like a few of them just won’t delete, but I’m not sure why. The HTTP requests/responses seem valid, but they stay there, even after a page refresh. :man-shrugging:

The request looks like this (just like the others):

curl 'https://api.pipedream.com/graphql' \
  --data-raw $'{"query":"mutation repoBranchDelete($repoId: String\u0021, $branch: String\u0021, $messageConfirmation: String\u0021) {\\n  repoBranchDelete(\\n    repoId: $repoId\\n    branch: $branch\\n    messageConfirmation: $messageConfirmation\\n  ) {\\n    errors\\n    __typename\\n  }\\n}","operationName":"repoBranchDelete","variables":{"repoId":"repo_Q5ET7K","branch":"trigger-signups-test","messageConfirmation":"trigger-signups-test"}}'

thanks for flagging! Do you have any unsaved changes in that branch?

5

Yes!

And when I remove the changes (and sync with production), the branch can successfully be deleted! :ok_hand:

It’s a bit of a hassle, but at least the commit diff shows us what to revert. :slightly_smiling_face:

Awesome! Thanks for testing. Agree, we should probably surface a message in the UI or have a confirm button

For a few remaining branches, we can’t easily revert the changes… so we’ll wait to that feature :point_up_2: :sweat_smile:
