Rewinding remote git branch

git, version-control

Solution

You can use "git push" with "force" option

git push -f

via manpages:

   -f, --force
       Usually, the command refuses to update a remote ref that is not an ancestor of the local ref 
       used to overwrite it. This flag disables the check. This can cause the remote repository to 
       lose commits; use it with care.

Problem

Possible Duplicates: How do I push amended commit to the remote git repo? Undoing a git push Hi, I've deleted some commits from my master branch by using ``` git reset --hard SHA_VALUE ``` I have, however a remote version of the repository on github, and whenever I `git push` things, I get an error message, that I should merge the changes contained in the remote repository (which I do not want to). So my question is, what is the remote equivalent to the `git reset` command? thx
