Description
Hey there,
I deleted a personal repo named 'meeting-notes' and everything apparently worked fine. However now every time I try to delete any repo, there's this error:
ERROR Directory meeting-notes01207c4ca143bcf9526a89fce1ec8f18739cbb0bbb64e9a913aeba98bf2588845c1b0a-1531414536282801600 is not empty and can't be removed
