Why is it impossible to delete a file
on mobile. I only use github on my phone and its not even capable of performing basic file functions. I have to create a respository and then if one file gets uploaded by accident that I did not want. its impossible to remove. I have to delete that entire repository and then create an entire new one. the entire system is useless. how would you make it so I can run virtual machines on your platform but no options to delete a file on mobile. makes no sense. add basic functions . I should not be forced to manually delete the contents of a file and then the history is still there making the entire platform useless. then If I want to modify a file or change it that is just a trainwreck waiting to happen. things all merging and failing . just make things that work for average people not everything has to be an 8 hour job for something which takes 2 seconds
