repo-sweep

Bulk-manage your GitHub repositories.

Select repositories, make them private, archive or delete them, copy the list as JSON. Everything runs in this tab. The token is sent to api.github.com and nowhere else.

Which token
  • Classic token: scopes repo and delete_repo.
  • Fine-grained token: all repositories, permission Administration: read and write.
  • gh CLI: gh auth refresh -h github.com -s repo,delete_repo, then gh auth token prints one.

Without delete_repo everything except Delete works.

Recycle bin

  
Every repository deleted from this page, with what it was. GitHub keeps a deleted repository restorable for about 90 days, but its API cannot list or restore them, so this is the page's own record. This list lives in this browser only.

  

    How to restore one
    
    
      
  1. Open github.com/settings/deleted_repositories (Settings, Repositories, Deleted repositories), signed in as the owner.
    2. 
      
  2. Find the repository by name in that list; each row shows the deletion date. It stays there until the date in this bin.
    3. 
      
  3. Click Restore, then confirm. GitHub rebuilds it, which can take up to an hour.
    4. 
      
  4. Code, branches, issues, pull requests, wiki and settings come back. Release attachments, team permissions and issue labels do not, and a fork whose network still exists cannot be restored.
    5. 
      
  5. Reload this page: the repository is back in the list. Remove its bin row with "clear bin" when you are done.
    6.
