I also wanted to add that, when looking for similar issues in the community, I did run into this answer from @mwklose that may still be relevant here: https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/135806#discussioncomment-10431393.

Coming from another instructor - I am noticing that the assignment copying/forking repo process is different this year. Last year, it would directly fork from the template repository, but now, it creates an intermediate template which it forks from.

I got this error when I deleted this intermediate template (attempting to verify that my code/autograding worked somewhat as expected), and then tried to delete the assignment.

The fix which just worked for me was to rename the assignment (I turned L00 into L00_deprecated, for instance), and then attempt deleting that.

I also cannot rename the assignment
