Command to remove GitHub Draft release

 

I'm trying to delete a Release in GitHub, so I'm doing 

git tag -d {release-tag-name}
git push origin :{release-tag-name}

This removes the tag (local and remote) but it leaves a Draft release in GitHub that I also want to delete.

I can delete it by login into GitHub and clicking the delete button but I want to avoid doing this through the website.

Is there a command to achieve this? I've found some other similar postings about removing tags but they all end up going to GitHub to delete the Draft .

Edit

In this question's accepted answer Step 2 and 5 are related to my question. Step 2 says This will turn your "Release" on GitHub into a Draft that you can later delete. while step 5 instructs to delete the Draft in GitHub's site, not trough a command.

Releases are not something git CLI can help you with.

Releases are GitHub specific thing.

You can use GitHub API to create/update/delete releases. 

DELETE /repos/:owner/:repo/releases/:id

If you want to automate interaction with GitHub API you can do the following:

  • Get an API token with proper permissions.
  • Store it somewhere, let's say environment variables.
  • Write a few scripts.

    • For example in this case you can have one script to delete local tag, call API to get tag id by name, delete remote tag and delete a release.
