From c47d9ed82c4c418eb366380a504f4d1983aaa1ed Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adam Williamson Date: Mar 18 2025 00:06:33 +0000 Subject: Drop tarball and video I'm moving the tarball into os-autoinst-distri-fedora. I also put the video file there on its own; AFAICT it's never used as part of the tarball, there's just one test that downloaded it directly from Pagure. I'm adjusting that test to get it from the distri. So it no longer needs to be here.
