How to remove a Gitlab project?

Question

I have created several repositories in GitLab. One of those was for testing purposes and has some commits and branches. I want to delete or remove this repository. How can I do this?

Answer 1

1. Go to the project page
2. Select "Settings"
3. Select the "General" section (you must be in the repository you want to delete it)
4. If you have enough rights, then at the bottom of the page will be a button for "Advanced settings" (i.e. project settings that may result in data loss) or "Remove project" (in newer GitLab versions)
5. Push this button and follow the instructions

Answer 5

To remove a project, you have to be the owner of this project, or the administrator of gitlab. Otherwise you can only see "rename project" but no "remove project".

NOTE THAT: the creator project is NOT always the owner of the project. If the project is in a project-group, and the project-group is created by another one, then the owner is the creator of the project-group by default.

You can find the owner's name of the project in the page Settings -> Members.
