NAME

glab-container-registry-tag-delete - Delete container registry tags.

SYNOPSIS

glab container-registry tag delete [] [flags]

DESCRIPTION

Delete one container registry tag by name, or delete matching tags in bulk by filter.

Deleting a single tag is synchronous. Bulk deletion is scheduled asynchronously by GitLab; matching tags may remain visible until the background deletion job has completed.

To bulk delete tags, omit and provide at least one bulk deletion flag: --name-regex-delete, --name-regex-keep, --keep-n, or --older-than.

The repository ID must belong to the selected project. Use -R/--repo to specify the owning project when running this command outside that project's Git checkout.

OPTIONS

--keep-n=0 Keep the latest N matching tags. Bulk deletion only; scheduled asynchronously.

--name-regex-delete="" Regular expression for tag names to delete. Bulk deletion only; scheduled asynchronously.

--name-regex-keep="" Regular expression for tag names to keep. Bulk deletion only; scheduled asynchronously.

--older-than="" Delete tags older than the given duration, such as 7d or 1month. Bulk deletion only; scheduled asynchronously.

-y, --yes[=false] Skip the confirmation prompt.

OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS

-h, --help[=false] Show help for this command.

-R, --repo="" Select another repository. You can use either OWNER/REPO or GROUP/NAMESPACE/REPO. The full URL or Git URL is also accepted.

EXAMPLE

# Delete a container registry tag with a confirmation prompt
glab container-registry tag delete 123 latest
# Skip the confirmation prompt
glab container-registry tag delete 123 latest --yes
# Schedule tags matching a regular expression for deletion
glab container-registry tag delete 123 --name-regex-delete '^release-.*' --yes
# Schedule old tags for deletion, but keep the 10 most recent matching tags
glab container-registry tag delete 123 --name-regex-delete '.*' --keep-n 10 --older-than 30d --yes
# Delete a container registry tag in another project
glab container-registry tag delete 123 latest -R gitlab-org/cli
