Git notes allow you to attach metadata to commits without modifying the commit itself. Notes are stored in refs/notes/commits and are useful for storing build status, review comments, or other annotations. 
const result = await repo.deleteNote({
  sha: "abc123def456...",
  author: { name: "Cleanup Bot", email: "cleanup@example.com" },
  expectedRefSha: currentNotesRefSha, // optional optimistic lock
});

console.log(`Note deleted, new ref: ${result.newRefSha}`);
