Add cm command to list deleted repositories
When using for instance compactsql it's very hard to get a list of deleted repositories (so they can be removed).
It would help if you had a cm command that takes a database filename and returns status (attached/detached).
Also re-attaching removed databases is a pain (as you cannot retrieve the name of the repository easily).
Yes I know I should notify the db admin (me too) to deleted the database right away (problem is it's easy to remove a repo but not to get it's associated table name afterwards).

As we said in the comment, deleted repos are outside the control of plastic… so there’s no good way to list them

Hi,
Well, the answer is almost the same we did before: repo names are not stored *inside* the repo database but inside the "repositories" one, so plastic doesn't have the name once you delete the repo.
We could potentially store the name within the database upon deletion... :-S
