fuck it. rm -rf repository; git clone repository

Been using git since almost as long as its been around, still can't be bothered to learn to how to fix conflicts.

Rename it, so you can run diff on those surprising things that in no way could have changed, but are not equal to the repository. And then delete.

Or keep the X-old; X-backup; X-bkp; X-old-old; X-old3 dirs.

mv .git .git_old7

git init

git add .

git commit -m "almost working"

Neither remove untracked files sadly.

I think git clean is more appropriate. With git stash you create a stash which you then have to drop.

[–] HairHeel 38 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Who says you have to drop it? I've got stuff from 2007 in there somewhere.

[–] BlueBockser 1 points 1 year ago

Of course you don't have to, but if you don't plan on ever using it then it's just trash living in your git folder. If you do plan on using it again in the future, then it's usually better to make it a branch so you can push it to a remote.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yea but you can always git pop if you need any of your stashed changes

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i chuckled at the thought of 'git poop' being a command. I'm going to alias that to something.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

You could make it run git pop until it clears the whole stash

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

That's why I follow it with git clean -fd

git restore . ?
Or am I misinterpreting the problem?

[–] static_motion 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

git restore is a pretty new command AFAIK. Those of us who learned git before its existence have probably stuck to the old ways of git reset --hard.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Yep, I just learned of this command..

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

alias mybad='git add -u && git commit --amend --no-edit && git push --force-with-lease'

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

😂😂😂

That is stupid. Those commands are for different use cases.
