How do you delete a fork on Bitbucket?

Viewed 47420

I've forked a repo on Bitbucket, it was a mistake, I want to delete the fork.

Rather than go through the hassle of merging it back in (which would be misleading as I haven't made any changes, anyway) I'd just like to delete it.

I can't see a front-end option in Bitbucket for this, but there must be one... right?

Atlassian keep changing the UI in the hopes people will stop deleting repositories. It changed yet again.

Today I gave up on bitbucket after they locked me out because their new login system is completely broken unless you allow third-party cookies so they can log you in two dozen sites at once. Thanks, no.

The current, as of 2020-Jul, position for the delete button is:

Repository Settings
  > Repository Details
    > three dots non-descript button on the top right of the page
      > Delete
