Reset git repository to specific commit from specific branch -
i working on branch in following state
a'--b'--c'--d' / a--b--c--d some bad things happened , have go b' both locally , remote remote repository following
a'--b' / a--b--c--d for local repository did
git reset --hard <sha> but how can remote repository?
i should able like
git push origin mybranch --reset
but it's not in man page
i tried creating commit cancel previous ones but
git add .
reports there no changes (expected since i'm after previous push)
so how can reset remote repository?
removing commit history
all need on b' branch, , go git push --force overwrite current commit pointer branch. if don't have remotes set tracking branches, may need git push --force origin <branchname> instead.
c' , d' remain in reflog , objects in repository until pruned, shouldn't show part of log history unless start digging plumbing.
removing dangling objects repository
if want c' , d' out of repository altogether, can call git prune --expire now in both repositories. should remove dangling objects altogether.
