Context
On https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/environment-variables they describe a way to add an environment variable with yaml:
jobs:
job_name:
env:
NAME: value
On https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/workflow-commands-for-github-actions/#setting-an-environment-variable linked from the same place, shows how to add an environment variable from script steps:
echo "NAME=value" >> $GITHUB_ENV
Question
I'm looking for a way to do the opposite: given that an env var was added with one of the above options, fully remove it so that subsequent job steps don't see it either.
I tried
echo "NAME=" >> $GITHUB_ENV
but it just sets it to empty string, I need it gone so that env doesn't list it any more.
