Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Problem

Actions taken:
Archived dead wizard dirs to
/root/archive/:deep-dive(64K) -> deep-dive.tar.gzhermes-turboquant(44K) -> hermes-turboquant.tar.gzturboquant-llama.cpp(182M) -> turboquant-llama.cpp.tar.gzDocker system prune -af — already clean, 0B reclaimed
journalctl --vacuum-time=3d — already within 3 days, 0B freed
Cleaned old logs — truncated syslog.1 (58M), removed old .gz/.1 files
