Resolving The Problem

This is under review with IBM Development
Recommended Workaround:

Suppose dataset unwanted_data in project test is to be removed, the proposed workaround is for a project collaborator (with admin or editor privilege) to:

  1. open project test and then launches terminal (with either Python 2.7 or 3.5)
    1. do rm -rf datasets/unwanted_data.
    2. do git add datasets/unwanted_data.
    3. do git commit -m "Remove unwanted data.".
  2. navigate browser to project test.
  3. choose Push from Git Actions menu to tag & push.

All other project collaborators choose Pull from Git Actions menu.
