How do you switch between branches in a bare repo?

You don't have to. This should work:

   git push -f . newbranch~2:newbranch

will remove the last two commits at the tip of 'newbranch'.

Of course, you can do the push from any other repository as long as you
are allowed to do non-fast-forward pushes into the bare repository.

Thanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately it looks like I'm not allowed to do non-fast-forward pushes into my own repository because I keep getting this error:

error: denying non-fast-forward refs/heads/newbranch (you should pull first)
 ! [remote rejected] newbranch~2 -> newbranch (non-fast-forward)

I tried using a + in front of the branch name as recommended by the manpage but it didn't change anything :-(

Any further suggestions?

Thanks again,
Adam.
