DESCRIPTION:

For a GitHub Enterprise Instance, lists every empty repository in format : separated by new lines. Deleting them if passed the option --execute=TRUE

Example Output: List all empty repositories organization:repository1 organization:repository2 organization:repository3

AUTHENTICATION:

Before running this script, you must create a Personal Access Token (PAT) at https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-personal-access-token-for-the-command-line/ with the permissions and admin:org scopes and <delete_repo>. Read more about scopes here: https://developer.github.com/apps/building-oauth-apps/scopes-for-oauth-apps/

Once created, you must export your PAT as an environment variable named <GITHUB_TOKEN>.

Exporting PAT as GITHUB_TOKEN $ export GITHUB_TOKEN=abcd1234efg567
