Usage:

.\Delete-ProjectsWithoutProcesses.ps1 http://my.octopus.url API-KEYTHATCANDELETE

The above command will list all projects and highlight those that are missing processes as a result of an erroneous import. It will not delete them.

To actually delete, add another -Delete argument to the end of the command:

.\Delete-ProjectsWithoutProcesses.ps1 http://my.octopus.url API-KEYTHATCANDELETE -DELETE
