You shouldn't actually use this. Right after I published it, @techoweenie let me know that the GitHub V2 API actually lets you delete repos. Since the V3 API doesn't, I just assumed the V2 API didn't either (seems strange to have dropped it in V3, but wev).
Anyway, go use that instead. Move along, nothing to see here.
I'm only keeping the code up here in order to preserve my stupidity. (Really, what software can't you say that about.)
Deletes GitHub repositories for you. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Available as a gem:
gem install github_repo_deleter
Use it like so:
require 'github_repo_deleter' GitHubRepoDeleter.delete_repo('username', 'password', 'repo_name') #=> true
See the documentation on the GitHubRepoDeleter module for details, and do yourself a favor and read the code before using this, so that you know what it's actually doing with your credentials.
