GT-PR-DELETE(1) gitea-cli Manual GT-PR-DELETE(1)

gt-pr-delete - Delete a pull request

gt pr delete [<number> | <url> | <branch>] [flags]

Delete a pull request for good, with its comments, reviews and attachments. This cannot be undone and needs the permission to delete issues, which Gitea gives repository owners and administrators. The head and base branches stay. To only stop work on it, use gt pr close. A branch names only an open pull request: give the number of a closed or merged one. Issues are not deleted by this command: see gt issue delete.

A pull request can be supplied as argument in any of the following formats:
- by number, such as "13" or "#13"
- by URL, such as "https://gitea.com/OWNER/REPO/pulls/13"
- by the name of its head branch, such as "feature/login" or "bob:feature/login"; a branch that
  reads as OWNER/REPO#N, such as "fix/login#2", needs the OWNER:BRANCH form
Without an argument, the pull request of the current branch is selected.
