Nothing is ever truly lost: a deletion is just another commit, and the old content stays in the history.
|
|
|
|
## Deleting one file
|
|
|
|
1. Open the file.
|
|
2. Press the **…** menu at the top right of the file view.
|
|
3. Choose **Delete this file** (or use the 🗑️ icon next to the edit pencil).
|
|
4. Write a commit message and press **Commit Changes**.
|
|
|
|
## Deleting a folder
|
|
|
|
1. Open the folder.
|
|
2. Press the **…** menu next to *Add File*.
|
|
3. Choose **Delete this directory**.
|
|
4. Commit.
|
|
|
|
Everything inside the folder is removed in that single commit.
|
|
|
|
## Deleting several files at once
|
|
|
|
The browser deletes one path at a time. For a large clean-up, work from your computer (chapter 10):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git rm -r old-folder
|
|
git commit -m "remove old folder"
|
|
git push
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Getting a deleted file back
|
|
|
|
1. Open **History** on the folder that used to contain it, or the repository history.
|
|
2. Find the commit *before* the deletion.
|
|
3. Open the file at that commit and copy the content, or press **Browse source at this point** and recreate it.
|
|
|
|
Anything that was ever committed can be recovered. Something you typed in the editor but never committed cannot.
|
|
|
|
## Careful with
|
|
|
|
- **Deleting the folder instead of the file** — check the menu title says *file* when you mean one file.
|
|
- **Protected branches** — if `main` is protected, deletion goes through a pull request instead (chapter 09).
|
|
- **Secrets** — deleting a password from a file does *not* remove it from the history. Change the password itself.
