We need to delete the release node located at https://drupal.org/node/1448242

It was created accidentally and is preventing us from using drush dl to get the best version (which is 6.x)

This will have to be submitted to the webmasters queue i believe. Let's keep it off their plate until after the downtime ;)

When I try to delete the tag:

$ git push origin :7.x-1.0-beta1
remote: The tag '7.x-1.0-beta1' is tied to a release on Drupal.org, and therefore cannot be relocated or deleted.
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/tags/7.x-1.0-beta1
To gundalo@git.drupal.org:project/provision_git.git
 ! [remote rejected] 7.x-1.0-beta1 (hook declined)
error: failed to push some refs to 'gundalo@git.drupal.org:project/provision_git.git'

It's correct that the tag cannot be removed as long as a release node is attached. So up to the webmasters queue, next week :)

Does the git backend have a cache for this? I still get the same error as in #1

Yes.

hmm...that cache should expire after 24 hours, at the most. i'll investigate.

yeah, the system is incorrectly reporting that release as still being present, despite it having been deleted. this is a regression from the D7 upgrade.

Sorry to re-open this but there seems to be an additional problem.

This url http://updates.drupal.org/release-history/provision_git/7.x still mentions the deleted release node (https://drupal.org/node/1448242)

Not sure why but it's now fixed.

They made some changes to the git server. Not sure but might have something to do with it.
