Typically authorized users administrators can delete file.

However that is not how Git is run.
When a new image file is uploaded and its has the same name as the old file,then

you would only see the new version of the file.

Deleting the old is not needed.

In theory, when you push these changes, they overwrite whatever exists in your GitHub repository. They don't need to be deleted.

Is this something SAS specific? If so, please provide the SAS issue.
