Unstar a repository

DELETE/api/repos/{owner}/{repo}/star

unstarRepository

Removes the authenticated user's star from the repository. Idempotent — unstarring a repo that wasn't starred is a no-op. Returns the updated star count.

Requires authentication using a bearer token or a session cookie — see tokens and scopes.
