Delete a Repository

Delete a repository and all of its PRs from PR Focus.

You can delete repositories that you’re watching from PR Focus. When you delete a repository, PR Focus:

  • Deletes all pull requests and their associated data from PR Focus
  • Removes the repository from your “Watched Repositories” list
  • Stops fetching new and updated pull requests from GitHub

You might want to delete a repository if you stop working on a project, or if the repository is too active and you find you are exceeding the GitHub rate limit.

If you delete a repository because it’s too active, you can still watch individual pull requests in the repository. For more information, refer to Watch a Pull Request. Or you could fetch updates from the repository less often. For more information about how to set the fetch interval for a repository, refer to Repository Settings.

You can delete closed pull requests without deleting a repository. If you only want to delete closed pull requests in a repository, refer to Archived PRs
