=== Re: ===
The answer was best only because in your previous question you wanted to
ensure fast-forwardness, i.e. "git push . origin/dev:dev" without plus
in
front to cause it to fail if it is not fast-forward.
=== end ===
No, I don't want to ensure ff. The remote may have been changed in
other ways. Though in that case I will avoid doing so; when it is not
the case it's even more important to see that your local copy is
different, and understand the tree, rather than blindly pulling.
=== Re: ===
If you know you have one unwanted commit you would want to discard at
the
tip of topic, you do not want fast-foward safety to kick in.
(1) if you are on the topic branch, you can say "git reset --hard
HEAD^";
or
=== end ===
It was a rebase, so the old value is not under the current, or even
visible on the tree. That's why I needed the reflog to find it.
Tagging it let it appear in gitk.
=== Re: ===
(2) if you are not, you can obviously check out topic and do the above,
or "git branch -f topic topic^".
=== end ===
As documented, this destroys the existing branch and makes a new one.
That would, by design, blow away the reflog for that branch. What I
want is a way to re-point it, and record that repointing =in= the
reflog. That is, a command-line version that does what I can do with
the GUI, but isn't limited to what I can point to with the mouse.
