Investigate: Tags not removed, despite matching the cleanup policy rules
Summary
After recent announcement about changes in GitLab Saas Free tier I found that our project exceeds 5GB threshold. It was strange, because I had Cleanup Policy set up like on the screenshot
When I looked into container registry I found that there are at least 80 tags per image most of which are more than 6 months old. Also, some images had tag with the git hash which must be removed by second rule.
I was forced to remove oldest tags manually. This task was also hard to achieve, because
- there are no pagination
- you cannot select more than 10 tags at once (no page size, related - #370331)
- you cannot select all tags on page with
10 tagscheckbox and then deselect one or two of the selected tags - you cannot select several tags at once with shift key
- you cannot sort tags by date
- after deleting of a tag it still shown on the page and you could not notice whether you deleted a tag or not without reloading page
See attached screen recordings for a reference:

Here I try to use shift key to select select more than one tag at once:

Maybe this issue is related to #276925 (closed)
