OK, I was going to reply and tell you to look in there, but I see you
found them already. This is the "modern" way to add repos.

I don't think there is one.

What I do is make a "disabled" subdirectory in there and move them
into that. But the minimal way to do it is just to delete the files.

I move them so that if I make a mistake and remove the wrong file, I
can just put it back.
