# This npm module can be used to easily delete unneeded GitHub Workflow runs 
# from your GitHub remote repository. You can select multiple entries to be 
# deleted at once easily from a navigable list.

# make script exit when a command fails:
set -o errexit 
# if any element of the pipeline fails, then the pipeline as a whole will fail:
set -o pipefail 

# Use supplied repo name, otherwise grab from current repo folder
