Docker repository: Deleting tag with API request makes an empty folder with name of the deleted tag

[Alex-Sergeev]

After installing a new verion of Nexus OSS 3.72.0-04 on Linux system encountered a bug.

When deleting a docker tag using an API request sometimes deletion instead of just removal, creates an empty folder with name of the deleted tag. It can be seen in web ui.

Docker can`t use this image, so it seems that a tag is actually deleted.
After a new deletion in the same docker repository, this empty folder deletes automatically. But before that folder stays.

Can this bug cause any problems in future?
Is there a workaround to fix it?
