koji bulk-untag-builds

usage: koji bulk-untag-builds [-h] [-f NVR_FILE] [--strict] [--force]
                              [--notify] [-v]
                              TAGNAME [NVR [NVR ...]]

Untag a large number of builds

positional arguments:
  TAGNAME               Tag to unassociate from builds
  NVR                   Build NVRs to untag

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -f NVR_FILE, --file NVR_FILE
                        Read list of builds from file, one NVR per line.
                        Specify - to read from stdin.
  --strict              Stop processing at the first failure
  --force               Force untagging operations. Requires admin permission
  --notify              Send untagging notifications. This can be expensive for
                        koji hub, avoid unless absolutely necessary.
  -v, --verbose         Print untagging status

This command is used to facilitate the untagging of larger amounts of builds, without the overhead of creating an untagBuild task for each NVR.

By default, this command will not trigger untagNotification tasks (which cause an email to be sent to the package listing owner and the build owner to let them know their build has been tagged). Sending such notifications can easily bog down a koji hub, so this setting should be left off unless it is absolutely necessary that such notifications be triggered.

The set of NVRs to untag can be fed to this command in multiple ways. They can be specified as arguments, or they can be specified using the --file option to reference either a file containing a list of NVRs (one per line) or - to indicate stdin. If NVRs are specified on the command line and also via --file then the two lists will be concatenated in that order.

If no NVRs are given as arguments, and the --file option isn't specified, and stdin is detected to not be a TTY, then the list of NVRs will be read from stdin.
