Git: Clear local and remote repo and start over
git, github
Solution
Simply remove local `.git` directory, remove repo from server (if it is github - do Repo -> setiings -> remove).
Then create new repository on server, and locally do:
git init
git remote add origin git@github.com:user/project.git
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit"
git push -u origin master
Problem
I accidentally got a repo in a bad state when trying to move a project from using ant to maven. Now, I would like to clear the repo and startover from scratch. Being new to git, I am a little cautious and not sure if I could just checkout then delete all files and folders locally then push to the remote repo or if that was actually a very bad idea. For some reason I'm having a hard time asking the correct questions in google. :D
