While using git remotes, I mistakenly created a branch that should not be there in Mesa.

Please delete the fedora-44 branch. Thanks.

This is safe to delete, it has never been built at all. The commit 03d2587 Rebuild for libdisplay-info 0.3.0 is in another branch already.

It's a copy of my personal branch with some not allowed items, I just fumbled with the remotes. I've switched to another solution without multiple remotes as it's too error prone.

FESCo allows releng to delete branches when the script above says it's safe to do so.
It's saying no, so... either the script somehow needs adjusting or we cannot allow it...

CC: @yselkowitz (who built the eln build here).

That commit is present in the f44 branch which is from where I would have built it. I believe the script is in error and the request can be fulfilled.

IMHO, we should fix the script so it passes before we allow deleting the branch.
