Question

let\'s say that we have an hotfixes branch which was created from master. we added commits to hotfixes, but those commits were not use

Answer 1

Based on a few of the answers in this thread, I did the following script with a few prompts to reduce risk of messing stuff up:

#!/bin/bash
# Questions for loop:
for value in {1..3}
do
  # Asking if user wants to reset hotfix:
  if [ "$value" == "1" ] ;then
    echo -n "Are you sure you want to hard reset the hotfix branch (y/n)? "
    read answer
    if [ "$answer" == "${answer#[Yy]}" ] ;then
        echo 'Okay, maybe next time.'
        exit
    fi
  fi
  # Asking if user is in void:
  if [ "$value" == "2" ] ;then
    echo -n "Are you in the void branch (y/n)? "
    read answer
    if [ "$answer" == "${answer#[Yy]}" ] ;then
        echo 'You should checkout to the void branch.'
        exit
    fi
  fi
  # Asking if user has any uncommited changes:
  if [ "$value" == "3" ] ;then
    echo -n "Do you have any uncommited changes (y/n)? "
    read answer
    if [ "$answer" == "${answer#[Nn]}" ] ;then
        echo 'You should commit your changes to avoid losing them.'
        exit
    fi
  fi
done

echo 'Resetting...'
git checkout void
git branch -f hotfix origin/master
git push -f origin hotfix

100% open to any feedback to improve this script.
