Hi, Sorry if this is a duplicate thread. Thanks for this beautiful platform for sharing our models and datasets. My question is, how can I delete a model repository from huggingface model hub? Thanks in advance. Sagor

To delete a model repository, right now you need to do it in code from the transformers library and do something like: from transformers.hf_api import HfApi HfApi().delete_repo(...) We’ll ship a UI to do it directly from the website in the coming days, though. (cc @pierric @thomwolf)

Hi @julien-c Just delete one of my repo using this method. Thank you. Hope will get UI option soon. regards

amazing. thanks @julien-c for letting me know. regards

Note: Problem encountered after deleting a model using the website: (I am assuming that ‘project’ and ‘model’ are synonyms) 🔥 [New] You can now delete a model from the website!. If a model is created with the same name again,the project (model) is created. However on attempt to load data, the following error occurs: Traceback (most recent call last): File “/home/vv/git/hf/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/huggingface_hub/repository.py”, line 359, in git_pull subprocess.run( File “/usr/lib/python3.8/subprocess.py”, line 516, in run raise CalledProcessError(retcode, process.args, subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command ‘[‘git’, ‘pull’]’ returned non-zero exit status 128. I have tried this twice, and finally ended up creating a model with a different name. So it appears that model deletion still leaves some remnants that lead to this issue.
