## Problem Statement Based on gitlab-org&6723, it has been proposed to add a command to trigger a removal of a repository from a Gitaly Cluster filesystem as well as the Praefect tracking database. This can be used in events such as a failed Geo sync, where a repo needs to be entirely removed to be redownloaded and synced. ## Problem Validation Given the numerous customer requests documented on https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/6723, this problem has been realized by our customers and can therefore be considered validated.
