Update remote branch after rewriting history
Forces an update of the remote branch after rewriting the history locally.
- Use
git push -f
to force update the remote branch, overwriting it using the local branch's changes. - This operation is necessary anytime your local and remote repository diverge.
git push -f # Examples git checkout patch-1 git pull git rebase master # Local `patch-1` branch has been rebased onto `master`, thus diverging # from the remote `patch-1` branch git push -f # Force update the remote `patch-1` branch
