    <p>Thanks Jeremy and Hervé!</p>
    <p>@Jeremy, @Hervé: I've checked and found two open patches, out of
      which I was able to abandon one, and asked the owner on the other
      patch to abandon it. So the listed branches can be deleted
      *except* one: openstack/os-collect-config</p>
    <p>So in my opinion there's no need for further coordination with
      the teams, as these branches are tagged ocata-eol already.</p>
    <p>And thanks Hervé for the script, it helped a lot so far, already
      :) + thanks Jeremy for the pointers!<br>
    </p>

            [...]<br>
            <br>
            The Gerrit REST API method for deleting branches is
            documented here:<br>
            <br>
            <a href="https://review.opendev.org/Documentation/rest-api-projects.html#delete-branch" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://review.opendev.org/Documentation/rest-api-projects.html#delete-branch</a><br>
            <br>
            I'm not immediately sure where branch creation happens in
            the forest<br>
            of our release automation, but I would expect deletion could
            be<br>
            implemented similarly. Hopefully someone more intimately
            familiar<br>
            with those jobs can chime in.<br>
            <br>
            The access control we'll need to grant to automation so that
            it can<br>
            call that is documented here:<br>

            <br>
            It'll need to be added manually as a permission for the
            Release<br>
            Managers group in our All-Projects global ACL which
            individual<br>
            projects inherit, and this documentation updated
            accordingly:<br>
